[QUOTE="hypocrisy, post: 916335, member: 9500"] [B]Labor board approves new rules to speed up union elections by reducing delays and litigation[/B] [B]By Associated Press, Wednesday, December 21, 11:29 AM[/B] [COLOR=#000000][FONT=Times New Roman]WASHINGTON — In a win for organized labor, the National Labor Relations Board on Wednesday approved sweeping new rules that would speed the pace of union elections, possibly making it easier for unions to gain members at companies that have long rebuffed them. Business groups quickly denounced the move, saying it limits the time that employers have to educate workers about the impact of joining a union. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has already filed a federal lawsuit challenging the rules. The rules, which take effect April 30, simplify procedures and reduce legal delays that can hold up union elections after employees at a work site gather enough signatures to form a union. “This rule is about giving all employees who have petitioned for an election the right to vote in a timely manner and without the impediment of needless litigation,” board chairman Mark Pearce said.
