"One of the most important responsibilities of field employees is to serve as hearing officers in a representation case or 10(k) proceeding. The hearing officer must ensure that the hearing is conducted in accord with Agency procedures and that the resulting record is free of cumulative or irrelevant testimony yet sufficient to allow for an informed determination of disputed issues by the Board or the Regional Director. ..."

"This Guide has been prepared by the Office of the General Counsel to provide guidance to hearing officers in conducting hearings in NLRB representation proceedings and Section 10(k) hearings.

The Guide emphasizes techniques of conducting the hearing and developing a complete record. It is designed only to provide procedural and operational guidance to the Agency's staff and is not intended to be a compendium of substantive or procedural law, nor a substitute for knowledge of the law. Similarly, the Guide does not constitute rulings or directives of the Board or the General Counsel, and is not a form of authority binding on either the Board or General Counsel."
