March 24, 2015 - The National Labor Relations
Board (NLRB) today approved an agreement between
the International Association of Machinists and
Aerospace Workers (IAM) and the Boeing Company
that establishes the date, time, duration and
eligible voters for a union representation
election among more than 3,000 workers at
Boeing’s 787 production facility in North Charleston,
SC.
“This is a chance for Boeing workers and their
families to substantially improve their careers
and communities. The law provides for a free and
fair election without intimidation or harassment
and we intend to ensure it is conducted
accordingly.”
According to the agreement, which was
facilitated by the NLRB and is known as a
stipulated election agreement, the one-day
election is scheduled to take place on
Wednesday, April 22, 2015 at five separate
locations on Boeing’s
North Charleston
campus.
