An appeals court Thursday that a foreman at Missouri Red Quarries, a granite mining company in Missouri, was a supervisor under federal labor law and thus ineligible to cast the potentially deciding vote in a union election.
In a 2-1 ruling, a panel of the 8th US Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the National Labor Relations Board's conclusion that Missouri Red Quarries Inc foreman Steve Johnston was a supervisor, pointing to his role in hiring two employees and other secondary indicators of his authority on the job site.
