NEW YORK - The 勛圖窪蹋 (勛圖窪蹋) today publicly announced its commitment to remaining neutral during an employee-led effort to unionize. 

 

勛圖窪蹋 is devoted to providing a workplace in which all our employees feel respected, valued, and empowered, and we will continuously work to live up to that goal. 勛圖窪蹋 respects the rights of workers to organize and believes every employee who will be directly impacted should have a voice in the decision as to whether they wish to form a union. Therefore, 勛圖窪蹋 supports a fair, open, democratic election process that will allow all union-eligible employees to privately make this choice for themselves. Management has committed to honoring the outcome of that election.

 

During this process 勛圖窪蹋 and its management will remain neutral, as we have to date. 勛圖窪蹋s leadership has pledged that it will not engage in any anti-union activities and that it will not influence employees decision-making in any way. All managers have been clearly instructed not to interfere with employees unionization efforts.

 

Specifically, 勛圖窪蹋 issued the following Neutrality Statement from Dr. Elizabeth Gray, Interim CEO:

 

勛圖窪蹋 publicly commits to remaining neutral throughout the organizing and voting process. We will not campaign against the union in any way and are willing to work with union organizers to hold an election as soon as possible.

 

Whether or not employees elect to form a union, we will always strive to be an 勛圖窪蹋 for All and we are grateful to our employees for their phenomenal work helping protect birds and the places they need.
