Union Election Requests Hit Their Highest Level In A Decade

Union Election Requests Hit Their Highest Level In A Decade

Labor groups are trying to capitalize on the growing number of workers who want to form unions.

Federal officials continue to see an upsurge in union organizing among U.S. workers in the private sector, an optimistic sign for organized labor amid years of declining membership.

The number of union election petitions recently hit its highest level since 2015, according to a spokesperson for the National Labor Relations Board, the federal agency that oversees unionization efforts.

With more than 2,600 petitions filed so far this fiscal year, the number has already surpassed the total from the previous year, with 10 weeks to go. The board has received 32% more petitions than at the same point in fiscal year 2023.

Workers file petitions with the labor board when they want to hold a vote on whether to unionize, typically after a strong majority of workers have signed union cards. Employers can also request an election be held after workers have demanded a union be recognized.

The labor board said unions have won 79% of the elections so far this fiscal year when workers have filed the petitions. Unions have prevailed in 70% of the cases where employers filed the petitions.
