Labor Board Ruling Threatens Union Recruiting By Peter Szekely, Reuters
A recent decision by federal labor relations overseers jeopardizes a recruiting strategy that unions have used with increasing success to try to stem their declining memberships.
The National Labor Relations Board, or NLRB, said on Monday it would take a "critical look" at agreements that enable workers to get union representation by having a majority sign petitions or cards instead of going through elections.
Known as "card check" and "neutrality" agreements because they allow unions to represent workers where a majority have signed union cards and employers agree not to interfere, they have become the labor movement's main alternative to an NLRB election process it sees as fatally flawed.------------------------------------------- posted 6:50 AM :: reference link ::
