Many workers are members of labor unions. A labor union is an organization of workers, usually working for the same employer at the same workplace. Labor unions try to get a "collective" contract for their workers.

The laws governing labor unions are very complicated. Therefore, if you are faced with a union "organizing" drive at your workplace, you should contact a labor lawyer immediately to make sure that your response to the organizing drive is legal.

What is a "union contract"?
Are non-union workers covered?
Do I have to provide employees with a copy of the contract?
Will the union contract limit my right to fire an employee?
What is a "grievance"?

What is a "union contract"?

If your employees belong to a labor union, they probably already made a "union contract" - also called a "collective bargaining agreement" - with you. That contract covers wages, working conditions, and procedures for complaining about problems on the job.

Are non-union workers covered?

It's possible, because most unions bargain for a contract that represents all of the other employees at the workplace - whether or not they are actually members of the union. If a worker is covered by a union contract but is not a member of the union, it is possible that the worker will still have to pay the union a fee for negotiating the contract.

Do I have to provide employees with a copy of the contract?

It depends. Usually the terms of the contract cover your obligation to provide a copy of the contract to the employees. Often, you are supposed to provide the employee with at least one copy of the contract.

Will the union contract limit my right to fire an employee?

Probably. Union contracts usually provide that workers can't be fired, suspended, or disciplined without "good cause." That rule is usually found in a section of the contract titled "Grievance Procedure" or "Discipline."

If an employee thinks you didn't have "good cause" to fire or discipline, he or she generally contacts the union. The union may decide to file a "grievance" for the worker against you. If the union files a grievance against you, you should see an attorney who specializes in labor law, who should help you decide how to defend against the grievance. If you have questions about labor unions, contact a business lawyer near you.

Fantastical Theatricals: Central Kentucky's Premier Interactive Theatre Company Producers: Kathy Hobbs - kathy@fantasticaltheatricals.com (859) 771-0568 Charlie Bissell - charlie@fantasticaltheatricals.com (859) 619-0670 "Don't be afraid...it's only dinner theatre!" FANTASTICAL THEATRICAL is a touring, interactive theater company based in Central Kentucky. We travel throughout the state with customized musical comedy entertainment - specializing in the interactive musical-comedy murder-mystery. Most often, our performances are done amongst the audience in a dinner theater environment, but virtually any venue or need can be accommodated - for both public and private events. We are an interactive company, so we not only perform musical theater for your guests, but also engage them in the action. This is far less scary than it may sound to some. In our shows, individual audience members get involved in brief dialog or action, before the scripted action continues merrily along its way... pretty much regardless of what the guest said or did. Audiences have so much fun doing this! Where else are they invited to co-create for an evening? There is no comparable medium for your guests to have such an experience. We bring you something truly unlike any other type of theater. Our actors have performed in every established theater in Central Kentucky. That includes Actors' Guild of Lexington, Studio Players, Balagula Theatre, Lexington Children's Theater, Woodford County Theatrical Arts Association, Paragon Musical Theatre, Ragged Edge Community Theatre, and so many more! Our actors' resumes include work from California to Texas to New York City to Germany. We are proud to have on our staff the most experienced interactive murder-mystery Director in Central Kentucky.
