Disputed - Labor negotiations: re minority unionsedit
- Labor negotiations: re minority unions
"However, under the NLRA, if a minority of employees voted for a union, those employees can then form a union which represents the rights of only those members who voted for the union. [citation needed] This minority model was once widely used, but was discarded when unions began to consistently win majority support. Unions are beginning to revisit the "members only" model of unionism because of new changes to labor law which unions view as curbing workers' ability to organize."
I do not believe this is accurate. There are numerous sources that suggest otherwise. It is my understanding that business are not required to negotiate with minority unions unless they represent a majority of some distinct sub-group (like a majority of employees in the comsmetics department at Macy's.) But employers are not required to bargain at all with minority unions otherwise. You can form them if you like, but they have no power whatsoever under current law unless the employer consents. The recent VW case is unique because VW voluntarily recognized the union.
I don't have experience with editing, so I'll leave it to others to fix. But this needed to be flagged.
