Rhode Island H7291 allows non-union employees to form a group for collective bargaining with employers.
Rhode Island H7291 amends the Labor Relations Act to enable employees not represented by a union to create a group for collective bargaining with their employers. To establish a collective bargaining unit, employees must demonstrate majority support through signed file cards. The bill outlines two methods for demonstrating majority support: either filing cards signed by at least 30% of the appropriate unit requesting an election or filing cards signed by over 50% of the unit waiving their right to an election.
