UAW Rallies For Second Union Vote At Mercedes-Benz Alabama Plant, Cites Foul Play In First Election
The United Auto Workers (UAW) union is pushing for a new election at the Mercedes-Benz (OTC:MBGAF) (OTC:MBGYY) plant in Alabama, following its recent defeat in a unionization vote.
美國南方公司汽車工人聯合會(UAW)正要求在阿拉巴馬梅賽德斯-奔馳(OTC:MBGAF)(OTC:MBGYY)工廠進行新一輪選舉,此前該聯合會在工會化投票中遭受失敗 。
What Happened: The UAW has filed a petition with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for a fresh election at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Alabama, Automotive News reported.
據Automotive News報道,UAW已向國家勞工關係委員會(NLRB)提出請願,要求在梅賽德斯-奔馳阿拉巴馬工廠進行新的選舉。
The union alleges that Mercedes-Benz engaged in unfair labor practices, including the dismissal of pro-union workers and conducting anti-union meetings, which influenced the outcome of the initial vote.
該工會聲稱梅賽德斯-奔馳存在不公平勞工行爲,包括解僱親工會工人和進行反工會會議,這些都對初始投票的結果產生了影響。
Despite the UAW's efforts, approximately 56% of the 5,000 workers at the Vance, Alabama plant and the adjacent battery factory voted against unionization.
儘管UAW做出了努力,但大約5000名來自阿拉巴馬州文斯 (Vance) 工廠和毗鄰的電池工廠的工人中有56%投票反對工會。
Mercedes-Benz, however, maintains that it adhered to the NLRB's guidelines during the election process and will continue to do so as the situation unfolds. The UAW contends that Mercedes-Benz's actions prevented a free choice by employees, justifying the need for a new election.
然而,梅賽德斯 - 奔馳表示遵循了NLRB在選舉過程中的指導方針,並將在形勢發展時繼續這樣做。UAW聲稱梅賽德斯 - 奔馳的行爲阻止了員工的自由選擇,這證明了對新選舉的需求。
Why It Matters: The UAW's defeat in the Alabama Mercedes-Benz plant is a blow to the union's efforts to expand its reach in the southern United States.
UAW在阿拉巴馬州梅賽德斯-奔馳工廠的失敗是對該工會在美國南部擴大影響的打擊。
The UAW had been riding high on the heels of a significant win at a Volkswagen plant in Tennessee. The setback at the Alabama plant could have broader implications for the UAW's strategy in the region.
在田納西州的大衆汽車工廠贏得重大勝利後,UAW一度信心滿滿。然而,在阿拉巴馬州工廠的挫敗可能對該工會在該地域板塊的策略產生廣泛影響。
