Unionization effort at GE aviation factory in Alabama
The NLRB reported on Monday that they received a valid union petition from workers at a GE plant in Alabama. This unionization attempt is driven by workers' desires for better pay, benefits, and relations with management. Similar to other current organizing efforts at large companies like Starbucks, the GE workers in Alabama have expressed wanting to unionize not just their own location but GE factories across the country.
