Examples of Employer Conduct Which Violate the NLRA Are:

•Threatening employees with loss of jobs or benefits if they join or vote for a union or engage in protected concerted activity.
•Threatening to close the plant if employees select a union to represent them.
•Questioning employees about their union sympathies or activities in circumstances that tend to interfere with, restrain or coerce employees in the exercise of their rights under the Act.
•Promising benefits to employees to discourage their union support.
•Transferring, laying off, terminating, assigning employees more difficult work tasks, or otherwise punishing employees because they engaged in union or protected concerted activity.
•Transferring, laying off, terminating, assigning employees more difficult work tasks, or otherwise punishing employees because they filed unfair labor practice charges or participated in an investigation conducted by NLRB.


Examples of Your Rights As An Employee Under the NLRA Are:
•Forming, or attempting to form, a union among the employees of your employer.
•Joining a union whether the union is recognized by your employer or not.
•Assisting a union in organizing your fellow employees.
•Engaging in protected concerted activities. Generally, "protected concerted activity" is group activity which seeks to modify wages or working conditions.
•Refusing to do any or all of these things. However, the union and employer, in a State where such agreements are permitted, may enter into a lawful union-security clause requiring employees to pay union dues and fees.
The NLRA forbids employers from interfering with, restraining, or coercing employees in the exercise of rights relating to organizing, forming, joining or assisting a labor organization for collective bargaining purposes, or engaging in protected concerted activities, or refraining from any such activity.
