'It’s a total loss for Hearst, made doubly resonant by the fact that conservatives currently control the NLRB,' writes onesarahjones
Hearst Tower, the world headquarters of the Hearst Corporation, in New York City. Photo: Mario Tama/Getty Images When the editorial staff of Hearst Magazines decided to form a union with the Writers Guild of America, East, they expected some resistance from their powerful employer. But Hearst made it clear, early, that it would go to particularly aggressive lengths to try to prevent a union.
Hearst had advanced three major arguments against the WGAE’s bargaining unit. Of the three, one is a fairly common site of conflict between employers and unions. Hearst wanted to classify six employees as management, which would exclude them from the bargaining unit; the WGA disagreed. For Hearst, this was an easy way to try to shrink the unit, which would save the company some money and weaken the unit’s overall power. The company’s other two arguments are a bit more unusual.
And then there’s the matter of the Hearst International Employees Association, or HIEA. The entity, which is registered to the same address as Hearst Communications, filed a motion to intervene in the WGAE’s organizing effort on the basis that it was a union already open to Hearst employees.
Hearst employees will now vote in a union election, either in person or by mail. In a statement to Intelligencer, the Hearst organizing committee said it was “pleased” that the NLRB “has directed an election for us to vote as one union, which will include our colleagues from 28 publications, rather than the six separate units proposed by Hearst.”
