  • Title: Union organizing activity in the hospital industry.
    Author: Kilgour JG.
    Journal: Hosp Health Serv Adm; 1984; 29(6):79-90. PubMed ID: 10268664.
    Abstract:
    In 1974, the National Labor Relations Act was amended to include not-for-profit healthcare institutions. This triggered an important expansion in union organizing activity in the industry. Based on an examination of National Labor Relations Board election data, this article examines the impact of that development on hospital bargaining units, the labor organizations involved, and the geographical locations of the organizing activity. It concludes with some general recommendations to management.
