Heading: Board's Order After Remand

Text: On remand, the Board issued a supplemental decision and order ( Sam Andrews' Sons, supra, (Dec. 10, 1985) 11 ALRB No. 29). The Board reiterated that, in view of the grower's repeated and egregious violations of employee organizational rights, it believed unrestricted access was appropriate and stated its view that an unrestricted access order would not sanction abuses by workers or union organizers. Nevertheless, in order to comply with the remand order, the Board modified its order to restrict access during an eight-hour period when workers could be presumed to be sleeping and during times when no employees were in the camp. The Board refused to prohibit organizers from entering the bunkhouses, but did limit the number of organizers permitted in a bunkhouse to one for each ten residents, and set an overall limit that the number of organizers permitted in the camp was not to exceed the number of employees present at the camp at any one time. In pertinent part, the Board's modified order in 8 ALRB 87 commanded the grower to: Cease and desist from: [¶] (a) Preventing, limiting or restraining any non-resident union organizers or agents from entering and/or remaining on the premises of Respondent's labor camps for the purpose of contacting, visiting or talking to any agricultural employees on the premises, unless such organizers or agents, [¶] (1) are present in a bunkhouse in numbers which exceed one organizer for every 10 employees residing in the bunkhouse; [¶] (2) seek to enter the camp or remain in the camp during an eight-hour period, to be designated by the Regional Director, when the camp residents are usually sleeping; or [¶] (3) exceed in number the number of employees present in the camp. [¶] (b) In any like or related manner, interfering with, restraining, or coercing agricultural employees in their right to communicate freely with union organizers or agents on the premises of Respondent's labor camps.
