Wells Fargo Staff in Spring Hill End Exclusive Representation by CWA Union

Staff at the Lakewood Plaza Wells Fargo branch in Spring Hill are no longer bound by exclusive representation. They are no longer required to follow a a single, union-negotiated contract. This shift comes after a bank employee, Virginia Fenton, filed a petition with the National Labor Relations Board. Fenton gathered enough signatures from her coworkers to the trigger a federally supervised decertification vote scheduled for March 30. Days before the deadline, CWA officials—operating under the name ‘Wells Fargo Workers United’—filed a disclaimer of interest. The National Labor Relations Board acknowledged the move on March 27 and cancelled the election. The staff is no longer represented by the union.
