| Facility and Operating Unit: |
A facility refers to a separate building or buildings. An operating unit refers
to an organizationally or operationally distinct product, operation, or specific
work function within or across facilities at the single site. Whether a specific
unit within an employer's organization is an operating unit depends on such
factors as collective bargaining agreements, the employer's organizational
structure, and industry understandings about what constitutes separate work
functions. |
