representation vote
Any lawyers in the crowd? I'm wondering, if a pilot group with a current union contract holds a representation vote and votes to change bargaining agents, ie, change unions, does that require a full section 6 contract negotiation to begin? I assume you would continue to operate under the "status quo," but would you open negotiations right away, or would you have to wait for the amendable date of the old contract? I've gone online and tried to find the answer in both the Railway Labor Act and the National Labor Relations Act, but it's not real clear.
