Optum staff in New York vote to unionize
March 19, 2025 // Optum filed two objections March 4, requesting that the election results be set aside. NLRB documents the union shared with Becker’s shows the first objection is related to quorum. Optum argues that “given the absence of a quorum by the NLRB, regional directors do not have the authority to certify election results or investigate and adjudicate the employer’s objections under Section 3(b) of the National Labor Relations Act.” The second objection argues that the NLRB limited Optum’s ability to share its opinion or arguments about unionization with employees during working hours. The union, on the other hand, accuses Optum of running an anti-union campaign.
