J. R. Stevenson Corporation was engaged in a large construction project for which it needed intrasite and intersite truck drivers belonging to the Teamsters Union. Part of the collective bargaining agreement with the Teamsters required that Stevenson provide a heated trailer with a telephone at the site and hire a shop steward for the site. Stevenson paid Arpod Korchma $20,000 per year to serve as shop steward.

As shop steward, however, Korchma remained inside the heated trailer during working hours, emerging only to check the union cards of drivers as they entered the site gate. Stevenson eventually objected to the presence of Korchma, claiming that it had no use for him and that he performed no work or traditional Teamster duties.

Stevenson charged the Teamsters with featherbedding in violation of Section 8(b)(6). The union denied that it was engaging in this practice. What factors must the Board consider in deciding a featherbedding case? What was the result in this case?
