ALERT!!! NLRB Rule Will Require ALL Businesses to Alert Workers to Union Rights

A New National Labor Relations Board Rule Will Require "ALL" Businesses to Alert Workers to Union Rights


"Please Submit Your Comments On This Egregious Rule Today"
A Web Link Where You Can Make Your Comments Is Provided Below !!!!

In a move designed to help boost unions, the National Labor Relations Board on Tuesday proposed a new rule requiring private-sector employers to post notices telling workers about their right to unionize.

The Proposed Rule is sure to please Unions that are struggling to maintain membership, but will surely result in objections from businesses. Under the rule, businesses would be mandated to notify their employees about their union rights by posting a Department of Labor Appoved Poster regardless of whether a union already exists in the workplace.

Employees would have to be notified about their rights to form or join a union and to bargain collectively with their company for the purposes of improving pay and working conditions.

The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking was published in the Federal Register on December 22, 2010 and members of the public can submit comments on the proposal for 60 days, until February 22, 2011.
Under the NPRM, employers would face various sanctions for failing to post the notice, including:
  • Unfair Labor practice charges
  • Time limits for filing other unfair labor practice charges against the employer extended
  • The NLRB utilizing the failure to post the notice as evidence of unlawful motive in other unfair labor practice cases To View The DOL Poster, Click Here
    The NLRB, in explaining the idea, wrote in the proposed rule that it was concerned many employees are "unaware" of their rights under the National Labor Relations Act.
