UAW Rallies For Second Union Vote At Mercedes-Benz Alabama Plant, Cites Foul Play In First Election
The United Auto Workers (UAW) union is pushing for a new election at the $MERCEDES-BENZ GROUP AG (MBGAF.US)$ plant in Alabama, following its recent defeat in a unionization vote.
美国汽车工人联合会（UAW）工会正在推动新的选举 $MERCEDES-BENZ GROUP AG (MBGAF.US)$ 位于阿拉巴马州的工厂，此前该工厂在工会投票中失败。
What Happened: The UAW has filed a petition with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for a fresh election at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Alabama, Automotive News reported.
发生了什么：据《汽车新闻》报道，UAW已向国家劳动关系委员会（NLRB）提交了请愿书，要求在阿拉巴马州的梅赛德斯-奔驰工厂举行新的选举。
The union alleges that Mercedes-Benz engaged in unfair labor practices, including the dismissal of pro-union workers and conducting anti-union meetings, which influenced the outcome of the initial vote.
该工会指控梅赛德斯-奔驰从事不公平的劳动行为，包括解雇支持工会的工人和举行反工会会议，这影响了最初的投票结果。
Despite the UAW's efforts, approximately 56% of the 5,000 workers at the Vance, Alabama plant and the adjacent battery factory voted against unionization.
尽管UAW做出了努力，但在阿拉巴马州万斯工厂和邻近的电池工厂的5,000名工人中，约有56％的人投票反对组建工会。
Mercedes-Benz, however, maintains that it adhered to the NLRB's guidelines during the election process and will continue to do so as the situation unfolds. The UAW contends that Mercedes-Benz's actions prevented a free choice by employees, justifying the need for a new election.
但是，梅赛德斯-奔驰坚持认为，它在选举过程中遵守了NLRB的指导方针，并将随着局势的发展继续这样做。UAW辩称，梅赛德斯-奔驰的行为阻止了员工的自由选择，这证明需要举行新的选举。
Why It Matters: The UAW's defeat in the Alabama Mercedes-Benz plant is a blow to the union's efforts to expand its reach in the southern United States.
为何重要：UAW在阿拉巴马州梅赛德斯-奔驰工厂的失败是对该工会扩大其在美国南部影响力的努力的打击。
The UAW had been riding high on the heels of a significant win at a Volkswagen plant in Tennessee. The setback at the Alabama plant could have broader implications for the UAW's strategy in the region.
在田纳西州大众汽车工厂取得重大胜利之后，UAW一直处于高位。阿拉巴马州工厂的挫折可能会对UAW在该地区的战略产生更广泛的影响。
