RC Petition {NLRB-502 (RC)}

FORM NLRB-502 (RC) - RC PETITION. This form is used to request that the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) conduct an election to determine whether employees wish to be represented by a union for collective bargaining purposes. This petition is filed by a union (the petitioner) that seeks to represent a group of employees, alleging that a substantial number of them, at least 30%, have expressed interest in union representation. The form requires details about the employer, including its name, location, type of business, and the number of employees in the proposed bargaining unit. It also asks whether the employer has previously recognized the union or declined recognition after a request. The form includes information on any existing strikes or picketing, other labor organizations that may have claimed representation rights, and details about the requested election, such as the method (manual, mail, or mixed), date, time, and location. The petitioner must provide their contact information and certify that the information provided is accurate. Once filed, the NLRB reviews the petition and, if appropriate, schedules a secret ballot election to determine whether the employees wish to be represented by the union. www.FormsWorkflow.com
