Volkswagen AG today said it would go to a U.S. federal appeals court in an effort to keep the UAW from representing a portion of the company’s plant workers in Chattanooga, Tenn.
The UAW in turn filed an unfair labor practices charge against Volkswagen with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for the automaker’s continuing refusal to bargain with the 160 skilled trades workers who voted 71 percent in December to be represented by the union.
