EMPLOYEE RELATIONS CASE STUDIES > CASE STUDY 5

Winch manufacturer defeats Teamsters Union by more than five-to-one.

Employee satisfaction surveys really work - these two facilities showed almost 25 percent improvement in one year.

This winch manufacturing company was surprised by the Teamsters petition and had no notice of any problems before the petition was filed. The company had recently changed ownership and employees were uncertain about the new leadership - this uncertainty led them to the doorstep of the Teamsters.

The campaign was conducted primarily through the use of video and local supervisors. The Teamsters held employee meetings and visited employees at home, making the typical promises of big wage and benefit increases.

We showed employees copies of documents like the Teamsters constitution, bylaws and failure to represent charges against the union to prove that the Teamster promises were not true. Ultimately the employees overwhelmingly rejected the idea of Teamster representation.

NOTE: Due to the sensitive nature of these interventions, the company identity is kept confidential. If you would like to learn more, or wish to arrange a discussion with the actual client, please contact Phil Wilson at 888-435-0002.
