Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The union must represent a group of employees who share similar duties, skills, and pay in order to file for an election with the National Labor Relations Board. A union cannot represent all employees, as employees may have different job functions, skill levels, and compensation packages. The union also cannot represent only a small portion of the employees (less than 30 percent), as the National Labor Relations Act requires a threshold of at least 30 percent support among a particular group of employees before an election can be held. Finally, the union's petitions for an election must be in the best interest of the employees, not the employer. Therefore, the best choice is B.
