1310.07000 – Accretion, Adding classification(s) to existing unit (PERB jurisdictions)
Under PERB Regulations, a unit modification petitioner need not submit proof of support when it seeks to add classifications that would not increase the bargaining unit in question by 10 percent or more. (PERB Reg. 32781(e)(1); Regents of the University of California (2025) PERB Order No. Ad-527-H, p. 2, fn. 1.) However, as explained in Regents, supra, p. 9, there is an exception to this rule when a second union files a request for recognition or petition for certification for an appropriate unit that includes classifications at issue in the unit modification petition, and the second union provides sufficient proof of support. (PERB Reg. 32781(e)(2).) (pp. 4-6.)
