Records of United Electrical, Radio, and Machine Workers of America Organizing Campaign, 1942-1999.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/317497321

This subgroup documents the United Electrical, Radio, and Machine Workers of America's (UE) activities to recruit new members or to mobilize its members to action. Materials consist of leaflets, correspondence, memoranda, National Labor Relations Board materials, reports, and articles. These materials offer a view into the typical means the UE used to publicize the union at plants during organization campaigns. Often, the UE found itself competing for recognition within the plants with other unions, such as the International Union of Electronic, Electrical, Salaried, Machine & Furniture Workers (IUE) or the International Association of Machinists (IAM). Two UE organizational campaigns worth noting are efforts at General Electric plants and in companies in the southeastern United States.
