International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union v. National Labor Relations Board (Bernhard-Altmann Texas Corp.) | 366 U.S. 731 (1961)
Under federal labor law, an employer must recognize a union chosen by an employee majority as the employees’ exclusive bargaining agent. But an employer may not recognize a union as exclusive bargaining agent if that union lacks majority support. Does an employer violate the law if it mistakenly believes a union has majority support? That’s the question in International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union versus National Labor Relations Board.
The International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union organized at Bernhard Altmann Texas Corporation’s factory. A union representative told Bernhard erroneously that the union had obtained signed cards from a majority of employees in the production and shipping department, authorizing the union to represent them. Neither the union nor Bernhard checked the cards against payroll records to confirm this assertion.
Bernhard and the union signed a memorandum of understanding in which Bernhard recognized the union as the exclusive bargaining agent for its production and shipping employees. After weeks of negotiations, the parties signed a formal collective bargaining agreement. By that time, the union had signed cards from an employee majority.
The National Labor Relations Board’s general counsel filed a complaint against Bernhard and the union, charging that the parties violated the National Labor Relations Act by signing the memorandum of understanding when the union lacked majority employee support. The board found the parties had violated the act, although each believed in good faith that an employee majority supported the union. The board ordered the parties to refrain from enforcing any agreements pending a government supervised representation election. The District of Columbia Circuit affirmed. The Supreme Court granted cert.

In the Communist Manifesto of 1848, Karl Marx and Frederick Engels urged ‘workers of the world to unite, as they had nothing to lose but their chains’. They didn’t do so then and haven’t since but have combined in trade unions in every part of the industrialised world with significant results in improving their workplace situation and their nations’ social welfare provision. Since then, trade unionists have also banded together globally to bring about more fundamental changes to the status of the working class and to call a halt to the periodic bloodletting of nations in wars. However, they have found that workers can be nationalistic as well, in support of their nations against other nations. Two world wars have resulted with massive carnage of populations in every nation. Today trade unions are less confident about appealing to fellow workers abroad, but in the face of multi-national corporations evading national governments’ rules and standards, they still aspire to build international agencies to regulate such abuses.
This seminar looks at the various efforts trade unions made in the twentieth century to unite globally and to enforce International Labour Organisation standards in all countries.
