Rocky Mountain Highlights

Reaching for the Summit of Positive Employee Relations

The CUE offices are dark, and all the stuff we need to run the big show in Denver is packed and shipped as we begin the long trek from the mountains of Georgia to the Rocky Mountains and Denver.

Here are some quick hit headlines to keep you up-to-date on the labor front for today.

• UAW reaches a revised deal with Fiat Chrysler

•  Top 10 Most Active Regions for Union Organizing in September. Tampa is #1, which is a bit surprising.
• The Employee Free Choice Act is dead. Will it be replaced by the Workplace Democracy Act? Probably not, but it points to how much of an issue labor policy will be in the 2016 election.
• This is a burning question and one that unions are leveraging with some success. What should the labor movement look like in the age of Uber?
• NLRB official nixes bid to form geographic ‘micro unions’ . A rare display of common sense from the Board.

See you in Denver!
