Workers at the Mercedes-Benz factory in Vance, Alabama, are scheduled to vote next month on whether to the join the United Auto Workers amid the union's organization push.
Workers at Mercedes-Benz's plant in Vance, Alabama, outside Tuscaloosa will vote next month on whether to join the United Auto Workers labor union. The National Labor Relations Board on Thursday said the 5,000 eligible workers at the factory will be able to cast their ballots from May 13-17. The announcement comes as voting is underway at Volkswagen's only plant in the U.S.
Winning either vote would be a significant milestone for the union. The UAW has tried and failed for years to organize nonunion U.S. auto factories, most of them built by Asian and European automakers in Southern states. But after winning record contracts with Ford, General Motors and Stellantis in the fall, the UAW is feeling a renewed momentum.
