Election Results at REI Cleveland Store
Mar 3, 2023
On Friday, March 3, employees at our Cleveland, Ohio store participated in an in-person election to determine whether they would be represented by the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union. The initial vote tally in the Cleveland election is 27 votes for union representation and 12 votes against.
REI believes in the right of every eligible employee to vote for or against union representation. We fully supported our Cleveland employees through the vote process and we will continue to support our employees going forward as they begin to navigate the collective bargaining process.
Together we will continue to focus on serving the Cleveland outdoor community as we have done since 2018.
