Field Technicians and Field Technician Specialists (also known as "Writers") at Public Service Company of New Hampshire (PSNH) will be voting by mail ballot in an election conducted by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The election will determine whether or not the Writers desire to be represented for purposes of collective bargaining by our union, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), Local 1837, AFL-CIO.

The NLRB has confirmed the following arrangements for this election:

Writers at PSNH perform a wide range of technical and clerical work, often working directly with customers. They are responsible for work associated with the design, maintenance, construction and operation of the PSNH electric distribution system.

Approximately 460 members of IBEW Local 1837 already work for Public Service of New Hampshire. PSNH provides electricity for more than 475,000 homes and businesses. PSNH is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Northeast Utilities, a utility holding company based in Connecticut.
