TBG consultants inform employees on the significance of authorization cards and educate them on how the union works to accomplish its goal of making them dues paying members.

Petition Avoidance As a union campaign builds, the union eventually gets to a point where it either feels that it’s strong enough to file a petition for election with the National Labor Relations Board or it drops the organizing effort. TBG consultants have been successful in helping businesses avoid union petitions more than 70 times by working prevention campaigns before a petition is filed by the union. We audit, train, coach, counsel and support the campaign communication process. You can’t lose an election that never takes place.

Appropriate Unit Determination The unit determination decision often has a critical impact on the result of a union election. A union has the right to file a petition to represent only that group of your employees it believes to have the best chance of winning. You have to be prepared to quickly make a decision on who you believe should be in the voting unit shortly after the union petition is filed. Will you have the right information to make that decision? Working with your leadership, TBG consultants provide the expertise you’ll need to make the best decision possible.
