PERB may amend an exclusive representative’s certification to reflect affiliation or disaffiliation only when: (1) there is “substantial continuity” of representation and identity between the pre- and post-disaffiliated union; and (2) the disaffiliation election was conducted with appropriate due process safeguards. If both criteria are not met, a question concerning representation exists that may only be resolved through the applicable election procedure.
