Decision A539E – Fontana Unified School District
LA-CE-6874-E
Decision Date: March 2, 2026
Decision Type: Administrative Appeal (Non-Precedential)
Description: Charging Party United Steelworkers Local 8599 appealed an administrative determination issued by PERB’s Office of the General Counsel (OGC). A PERB administrative law judge held a formal hearing and found that Respondent Fontana Unified School District violated the Educational Employment Relations Act (EERA) when it issued a directive to a bargaining unit employee not to contact students or staff at one of Respondent’s schools. Following compliance proceedings, OGC found that Respondent complied with the ordered remedy, including the order that Respondent make Charging Party and bargaining unit employees whole for any losses suffered as a result of Respondent’s unlawful directive. Charging Party appealed.
Disposition: The Board denied the appeal, finding that Charging Party’s assertion that a bargaining unit employee was denied an opportunity for summer work assignments because of Respondent’s unlawful directive was unsubstantiated.
