Kan. Admin. Regs. § 84-2-13 - Certification of election results

(a) Certification If no objections are filed within the time set forth above, if the challenged ballots are insufficient in number to affect the result of the election, and if no runoff election is to be held, a certification of the results of the election, including certification of representative, where appropriate shall forthwith be issued to the parties by the board or its designee. All employee organizations shall be certified as of the last day of election.

(b) Pre-existing contracts. When a governmental sub-division elects to come under the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4321 et seq. and at the time of such election there are formal written agreements between that governmental sub-division and a recognized employee organization representing one or more employee units entered into prior to the election to come under K.S.A. 75-4321 et seq. and those agreements continue and are in force at the time of such election, either the employer or the recognized employee organization may petition the board to certify the recognized employee organization as the exclusive representative of the employees within the unit. After a determination by the board or its designee that the petitioned for employee unit is not in violation of the act notice of the intent to certify the previously recognized employee organization shall be ordered by the board posted in locations conspicuous to all employees within the proposed employee unit not less than 10 days prior to making a final determination. If no protest or counter petition is filed, the board shall certify the employee organization as petitioned.
