- bBottom Up (9A) vs. Top Down (8f) Organizing.
The lesson describes three alternative ways for a union to secure legal recognition to organize a contractor. [NOT counting a direct order to bargain by the NLRB.] Two are forms of majority status recognition and one is not.
Pretend you have been put in charge of an organizing campaign. Your target employer is an established drywall and finishing contractor who is relatively new to work in this area, employing 15-30 trades workers at any given time. According to the International union, the contractor is neither pro- nor anti- union in philosophy.
As the lead organizer, write a report to the union business manager (the chief officer in the local union) explaining the three organizing options available by way of the NLRA. In doing so, briefly explain the process by which each of those strategies would be executed, as well as pros and cons of each approach from the unions perspective. Conclude with your recommendation to the business manager as to which of the three methods the union should pursue.
Base your recommendation on the information you have about the targeted contractor as well as what you know about the three methods of organizing a contractor.
