Wells Fargo Workers At Two Branches Move To Unionize
Wells Fargo employees at two of the bank’s branches filed for union elections on Monday, laying the groundwork for potential unionization in an industry that has largely been immune to such labor campaigns.
In a petition to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), bankers and tellers at Wells Fargo branches in Albuquerque, New Mexico and Bethel, Alaska declared their intent to join the Communications Workers of America’s Wells Fargo Workers United (WFWU).
Labor action in the United States has picked up pace this year, with unions confronting companies across industries like automotive, entertainment and aerospace.
