National Mediation Board
- 29 CFR Parts 1203 and 1206
- [Docket No. C-7198]
- RIN 3140-AA01
AGENCY:
National Mediation Board.
ACTION:
Final rule.
SUMMARY:
The National Mediation Board (NMB or Board) is amending its regulations to provide a straightforward procedure for the decertification of representatives. The Board believes this change is necessary to fulfill the statutory mission of the Railway Labor Act by protecting employees' right to complete independence in the decision to become represented, to remain represented, or to become unrepresented. This change will ensure that each employee has a say in their representative and eliminate unnecessary hurdles for employees who no longer wish to be represented.
DATES:
The final rule is effective August 26, 2019.
