IF they are not supervisors, and ...

IF they have interests and career paths in common ... then they can distribute "show of interest cards" for folks to sign. If more than 30% of the folks in the group of common interests (potential bargaining unit) ask for representation, then the employer CAN recognize a union or demand that NLRB supervise a secret ballot election.

If the election results in MORE that 50% of those who vote saying "union yes" then EVERYONE in the unit is represented by the union. If 50% or less vote union yes, the union loses, and there can be no election for that unit for another year.

If the group / unit is 100 employees, and only 60 show up to vote, if 31 vote union yes, then all 100 are in a union. Not 31, not 60, all 100.

How do you bring in a union to your workplace?

If your employees choose to unionize, you cannot. (Unless you are the TSA and have the President declare you have no rights as an employee.) Generally, attempting to stop employees from forming or joining a union is an unlawful labor practice and can carry severe penalties against the employer. Your best chance is simply to treat your employees in such a manner that they see a union as an unnecessary cost to them instead of seeing the union as someone that will help them fight an unreasonable and uncaring boss.
