However, because of a Foundation-won Supreme Court precedent in <i>Communication Workers v. Beck<\/i>, she cannot be compelled to pay the portion of union dues used for the union&#8217;s political, lobbying, and member-only activities.  Union officials are also legally obligated to inform workers of these rights and to provide workers with an independently verified audit of chargeable and non-chargeable expenses.<\/p>\n<p>Union officials failed to provide nonmember employees with the disclosure <i>Beck<\/i> requires and forced the workers to object annually, a tactic designed to coerce workers into paying full union dues.  Additionally, SEIU-UHW union officials required employees to provide their social security numbers to refrain from paying union dues used for union boss political activities, further discouraging workers from exercising their rights.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/en\/press\/2011\/11\/healthcare-workers-win-settlement-seiu-11302011\">Read the entire release here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/i\/newsrelease.png\" style=\"padding-left: 60px\" alt=\"News Release\" align=\"middle\" border=\"0\" height=\"48\" width=\"457\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"\/en\/press\/2011\/11\/healthcare-workers-win-settlement-seiu-11302011\" title=Healthcare Workers Win Settlement after SEIU Union Officials Demand Personal Information\">Healthcare Workers Win Settlement after SEIU Union Officials Demand Personal Information<\/a><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center; font-style: italic\">Worker advocate assists healthcare workers coerced into forced dues union ranks<\/h3>\n<p><b>Sacramento, CA (November 30, 2011)<\/b> \u2013 With free legal aid from National Right to Work Foundation attorneys, a Sutter Roseville Medical Center respiratory care practitioner has won a settlement against a statewide union for coercing her and her colleagues into paying forced union dues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[888],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-830","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
