Unfair Labor Practices
When most people think of violations of labor law, they think first of "Big Business." But employees, employers, and labor organizations file thousands of charges each year—called "Unfair Labor Practices"—alleging violations of labor law by union officials.
The National Labor Relations Board disclosed in its 2004 annual report that:
Unions faced a total of 6,917 allegations of wrongdoing
80 percent of those charges were filed by individuals
Unions filed more than 100 charges against other unions
81 percent of charges alleged illegal restraint and coercion of employees
More than 600 charges alleged illegal discrimination against employees, an increase of about 6 percent from 2003
A History Of Violations
Virtually every U.S. labor union faces allegations of violating labor law. Consider the number of charges filed against these unions between 1998 and 2004:
United Food and Commercial Workers 2,161
Teamsters 6,909
Service Employees International Union 3,910
Steelworkers 1,912
