Organizing Update

Open Society Foundation

This week, 209 administrative and program staff at the Open Society Foundation voted for representation by CWA Local 1180. The workers are located in New York and Baltimore. The workers' organizing committee was energized and engaged, pushing for majority signup recognition but agreeing to an expedited American Arbitration Association election to end a string of management delaying tactics. CWA Local 1180 local organizer Ryan Bruckenthal led the campaign.
