[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 205022"] [B]Krash, NoSpin, Brethren: Let Us Consult The Sacred Text . . .[/B] There is a strong presumption by the NLRB that an existing bargaining unit is the appropriate unit in an NLRB election. UPS has one national unit, (the National Master, created in 1979, I believe), and two other Chicago area units that never joined the national effort, (Local 705, and Local 710.) The APWA could start with either of the two local units, or both of them, *if* it wanted to. Further, when the APWA petitions for an election, it can also petition the NLRB to combine or carve-up the Teamsters/UPSers workforce in any way they want. There is a presumption that the existing order is correct, but the APWA, or any other labor organization on the ballot, can make a case to change the composition of the unit or units. You have to have a strong case, but it can be done. Each seperate unit would have a seperate vote. See . . . [url]http://www.nlrb.gov[/url] But start here at Chapter 12 first . . .
