IMPORTANT INFORMATION
BEFORE FILLING OUT A PETITION FORM!
• Please call an Information Officer in the Regional Office nearest you for
assistance in filing a petition. The Information Officer will be happy to
answer your questions about the petition form or to draft the petition on your
behalf.
• Check one of the boxes listed under Question 1 representing the purpose of
the petition: RC-a union desires to be certified as the bargaining
representative of employees; RM-an employer seeks an election because
one or more individuals or unions have sought recognition as the bargaining
representative, or based on a reasonable belief supported by objective
considerations that the currently recognized union has lost its majority status;
RD-employees seek to remove the currently recognized union as the
bargaining representative; UD-employees desire an election to restrict the
union’s right to maintain a union shop clause; UC-a labor organization or an
employer seeks clarification of the existing bargaining unit; or AC-a labor
organization or an employer seeks an amendment of a certification issued in
a prior Board case.
• Under Question 5, please carefully describe the bargaining unit involved in
the petition, listing the job classifications included in the unit and the job
classifications excluded from the unit.
• After completing the petition form, be sure to sign and date the petition and
mail, fax or hand deliver the completed petition form to the appropriate
Regional Office.
• The filing of a petition seeking certification or decertification of a union
should be accompanied by a sufficient showing of interest to support such a
petition—i.e., a showing that 30% or more of the employees in the bargaining
unit seek to be represented by the union or seek to decertify the currently
recognized union. If the original showing is not sent to the Region with the
filing of the petition, a party must deliver the original showing of interest to
the Region within 48 hours after the filing of the petition, but in no event later
than the last day on which a petition may be timely filed.
• Be sure to include telephone and fax numbers of the parties since this will be
a significant aid to the processing of the petition.
• Be sure to include the name and address of any other labor organization or
individuals known to have a representative interest in any of the employees
in the unit described in Question 5 of the petition.
• A petition should be filed with the Regional Office where the bargaining unit
exists. If the bargaining unit exists in two or more Regions, it can be filed in
any of such Regions. An Information Officer will be happy to assist you in
locating the appropriate Regional Office in which to file your petition.
