Why doesnt the union seek an NLRB election?
We want an election in an environment where workers can hear both sides and make up their own minds whether or not to form a union. Unfortunately, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) no longer adequately protects workers free choice. Currently, Advocate management is interfering in a decision that belongs to the employees themselves. Employees are being pulled away from patients to attend intimidating meetings with supervisors who let workers know that there will be repercussions for those who support forming a union. That is why a free and fair union decision process is needed.
