NLRB Targets Non Union Workers With Communications

To contact us Click HERE
The National Labor Relations Board has developed a webpage which specifically targets non union employees to educate them about their rights for protected concerted activity.  The webpage describes the rights of employees to act together for their mutual aid and protection, even if they are not in a union and tells the stories of more than a dozen recent cases involving protected concerted activity, which can be viewed by clicking points on a map.

Among the cases used as an example for employees to read:
  • A construction crew fired after refusing to work in the rain near exposed electrical wires;
  • a customer service representative who lost her job after discussing her wages with a coworker;
  • an engineer at a vegetable packing plant fired after reporting safety concerns affecting other employees;
  • a paramedic fired after posting work-related grievances on Facebook; and
  • poultry workers fired after discussing their grievances with a newspaper reporter.
Non-union concerted activity accounts for about 5% of the agency’s recent caseload.  However, the NLRB is clearly disappointed with these results is attempting to increase this activity.
