Workers at a Mercedes-Benz plant in Alabama, including a supermajority of the 5,000 workers, have filed for a union election to join the United Auto Workers (UAW). The workers seek to unionize and improve their working conditions. The petition was filed with U.S. regulators, and the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is expected to organize a factory-wide vote.
