Union certification elections in nursing care facilities. | LitMetric

Union certification elections in nursing care facilities.

Health Care Manag (Frederick)

Department of Management, Haworth College of Business, Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, Mich 49008-5429, USA.

Published: January 2004

This empirical study examines 387 union certification elections conducted by the National Labor Relations Board in nursing care facilities (North American Industry Classification System 623) from January 1999 to December 2001. Unions won 60% of the elections. Service Employees International Union was involved in 42% of the elections. Bargaining unit size significantly impacted union victory. Unions had a better probability of winning elections in the northeast and midwest than in the south. Unlike other industries, American Federation of Labor-Congress of Industrial Organizations affiliated unions did not suffer a big labor image in nursing care facilities. Implications for union organizers and administrators of nursing care facilities are discussed.
