UNION SMACKDOWN? Volkswagen Grants Anti UAW Group Recognition Along Side UAW For Tennessee Workers

Volkswagen says it has recognized a new group called the American Council of Employees to represent workers at its auto plant in Chattanooga, Tenn., in addition to the UAW.

The ACE is an alternative to and has campaigned against the UAW, which a year ago lost an election to be the sole representative of workers at the plant.

Each worker group will represent workers in an unconventional manner set up by VW that allows more than one group to meet with plant management.

Can we just push these UAW dinosaurs out the side door. I think VW should focus on quality and get rid of the greedy UAW union.

This may truly be the ultimate way to diffuse the UAW.

Offer recognition to opposing groups. It becomes far more difficult to hold out in a three to one situation you can be singled out as the bad guy very quickly.
