(June 23, 2003) \u2013 The National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation today announced it has launched a national ad campaign to educate the public about the abusive nature of the increasingly prevalent union organizing tool known as a \u201cneutrality agreement.\u201d  Under these pacts, employers are required to substantially assist union organizers in corralling employees into union ranks.<\/p>\n<p>The ads are currently running in targeted communities where the United Auto Workers (UAW) union is rolling out its coercive organizing drive at Big Three suppliers located in cities such as Glasgow, Kentucky; Gaffney, South Carolina; Lowell, Michigan; Grand Rapids, Michigan; and Athens, Tennessee.  Numerous other communities are on the advertising target list for in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The newspaper ads expose several tactics \u2013 some of which are illegal \u2013 employed by union operatives under these coercive \u201cneutrality agreements.\u201d  Under these agreements, employers typically turn over employees\u2019 names, addresses, and other personal information to union organizers who then conduct \u201chome visits.\u201d  They also give union organizers wide access to company facilities, and conduct company-paid \u201ccaptive audience\u201d speeches during which employees are told that they risk losing job opportunities if they opt against unionization.  Additionally, employees are usually stripped of the opportunity to decide on unionization through a traditional secret ballot election.   <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen workers see their employer working hand-in-glove with union organizers, they feel tremendous pressure against exercising their legally protected right to refrain from union affiliation,\u201d stated <a href=\"mailto:shg@nrtw.org\">Stefan Gleason<\/a>, Vice President of the National Right to Work Foundation, which provides free legal assistance to employee victims of compulsory unionism abuse. \u201cThe ads are intended to inform employees that they have the right to resist the harassment and threats that have become so common during these top-down organizing drives.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Pressured by UAW officials, crippling strikes, and the \u201cBig Three\u201d auto makers, companies such as Johnson Controls, Magna International, and Freightliner have signed one of these so-called \u201cneutrality agreements\u201d requiring the major suppliers to assist in efforts to unionize employees at their non-union facilities across America.  <\/p>\n<p>The use of \u201cneutrality agreements\u201d is part of a larger national trend in union organizing.  In recent years, as union organizers have had less success in persuading employees to vote for unionization during secret ballot elections, unions have focused on organizing employers instead, thereby short-circuiting employee consent.  For more information or to obtain copies of the ads, please call <a href=\"mailto:djc@nrtw.org\">Dan Cronin<\/a>, National Right to Foundation Director of Legal Information, at 703-770-3317.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Detroit, Mich.
