POLITICAL ACTION

WORK PROBLEMS?

 Being Union guarantees fair wages and job classifications, plus protects you from unfair work practices. Union companies historically have better morale and less employee turnover. Job classifications are fair, wages are standardized. A grievance procedure is in place to help mediate conflict. Can you approach your employer one-on-one if you have a problem?

 ALL EMPLOYEES HAVE THE RIGHT TO:

 To talk about Union activities/ideas, distribute union literature in any non working are within any work place (restrooms, etc) during lunch and rest breaks. Be free from supervisors spying on union activities. Refuse to discuss the union with supervisors or other management persons. Keep record of all violations of these rights (time, people involved and incident).

THE EMPLOYERS CANNOT LEGALLY:

 Prevent you from talking with other employees about the union in non-work areas during your lunch and rest breaks. Promise you benefits to encourage you to vote against the union or abandon support of the union. Grant pay increase or change your working conditions to influence your support or feelings about the union. Threaten to close the facility or lay -off employees if the union is selected. Compel an employee to discuss the union or any matters related to it. Give assistance to anti-union employees. Solicit employee grievances and promise to remedy the grievances in order to keep the union out. Have supervisors or other management persons call employees at home to ask about their support or feelings about the union. Spy on employees' union activities in or outside the workplace. Workers employed with the protection of a union contract have basic rights such as the right to a fair hearing that their non-union counterparts do not have. Members have a say in their jobs and are more productive due to the increased cooperation and better relations they have with management, they work as equals in order to remedy situations that might occur at work.
