Is Fuyao unionized?

Published in Labor Relations 1 min read

No, Fuyao Glass America is not unionized. The workers at its Ohio facility voted against unionizing.

Background of Unionization Efforts at Fuyao

Efforts to unionize the Fuyao Glass America plant in Moraine, Ohio, did not succeed. The company actively resisted unionization, holding the view that a factory operates more effectively without a union.

To prevent workers from forming a union, Fuyao Glass paid an anti-union consulting company over one million dollars. These efforts proved successful, as the workers ultimately cast votes against union representation. This outcome was a significant point of discussion regarding labor relations and foreign investment in the United States.
