Is a majority support necessary to file an application?
Yes. If you are applying to have your union’s bargaining rights revoked, you must include a separate and confidential statement, signed by a majority of employees in the bargaining unit, stating that they no longer wish to be represented by the bargaining agent. This statement must include the printed name and date on which the employee signed the statement. All signatures must be obtained within six months of the application being filed with the Board.
