Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit August 18, 1997, Nos. 96-70595, 96-70649 (Providence Alaska Medical Center v. National Labor Relations Board)

lead-opinion

Opinion by Judge THOMPSON; Dissent by Judge NOONAN.

DAVID R. THOMPSON, Circuit Judge:

The issue we decide in this case is whether registered nurses (RNs) who are employed by a medical center as “charge nurses” are “supervisors” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), 29 U.S.C. § 152(11).
