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.

Card Signing Card signing is the first step in union organizing campaigns to determine union interest before a petition is filed with the NLRB for a secret ballot election. Signed cards will inform union organizers of interest that will guid them in determining the viability of pursuing an election. If a petition is filed, organizers will begin an aggressive communications campaign via letters, emails, social networking sites, personal meeting etc. The time from petition to election is critical for employer's to address employee questions. If EFCA (Employee Free Choice Act), currently pending legislation, is passed card signing or "card check" will lead directly to union recognition and your voice will be virtually eliminated.
