Sysco has been found guilty of 79 unfair labor practices at their West Michigan facilities, according to NLRB judge Michael Rosas. Most violations dealt with threats, intimidation, and unlawful punishment of workers during a union organizing campaign. The violations culminated in a failed 2015 union vote. Rosas ordered the company to immediately stop threatening employees and start negotiating a contract with the Teamsters Local 406. The issue is now in Grand Rapid’s federal court and could take months or even years to resolve, as the NLRB’s request for an injunction to force Sysco to immediately follow Rosa’s orders is reviewed by the federal agency’s highest board.
