After petitioning the state NLRB for a vote to remove the Operating Engineers union multiple times last year and being unlawfully denied due to ‘blocking charges’ filed by the union, workers at Rieth-Riley Construction Company in Michigan have finally been granted the opportunity for a decertification vote.
No doubt they will find the same success as Shamrock Foods employees in Idaho who voted out the Teamsters this month, after similar attempts from the union to block an election.
