Charge: UAW officials illegally discriminated against nonmember worker causing GM to block possible promotion<\/em><\/h3>\n

Lansing, MI (September 18, 2019)<\/strong> \u2013 General Motors (GM) employee Joseph Small has filed an unfair labor practice charge against the United Auto Worker (UAW) Local 652 union with free legal aid from the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation.<\/p>\n

According to the charge filed with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) by National Right to Work Foundation staff attorneys, union officials interfered in the interview and hiring process for an opening at GM for which Small had applied. Union officials later admitted the position went to a union member instead of Small because Small had exercised his legal right to refrain from union membership and from paying union dues.<\/p>\n

This discrimination against Small by UAW union officials violates his legal rights under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). The NLRA outlaws discrimination by union officials against workers who elect to refrain from union activity. Small exercised his rights under Michigan\u2019s Right to Work law, which not only allows workers to decline union membership but allows workers to stop any payment of union dues or fees as a condition of employment. <\/p>\n

The unfair labor practice charge by Small comes as UAW officials have ordered a nationwide strike against GM affecting over 40,000 workers. The Foundation has issued a special notice to GM employees informing them about how to exercise their legal rights to refrain from participating in the strike and return to work.<\/p>\n

The notice can be found here: www.nrtw.org\/UAW-GM<\/a><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, UAW officials have been caught up in an expanding corruption and embezzlement scandal that has resulted in numerous indictments, with the FBI reportedly recently raiding the home of current UAW President Gary Jones just weeks ago. In a separate case brought Foundation staff attorneys, the NLRB issued a decision earlier this month holding that UAW officials illegally seized dues from a Ford Motors employee\u2019s paycheck while ordering the union to return the funds.<\/p>\n

\u201cUAW union officials continue to show a willingness to break the law, even violating the rights of the very workers they claim to represent,\u201d said National Right to Work Foundation President Mark Mix. \u201cWhether it be federal corruption prosecutions or unfair labor practice charges at the NLRB, UAW bosses must be held accountable when they break the law.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
