When the supervisors get approved for thier CBA, how will that effect non-employees that have any issues with shift command? Who will the union represent? since FOP holds both CBA when it passes.
Example: Lets say an employee was sexually assaulted by thier supervisor. How will the union represent both parties, whether the claims is true or not?
I am wondering because a union has duties to all union and non union members because you represent both Units. Will bias, misrepresentation, or conflict of interest be involved because of this?
Key points about Nevada union representation:
Right-to-Work State:
Nevada is a right-to-work state, which means employees cannot be forced to join a union as a condition of employment.
Duty of Fair Representation:
Despite not being a member, a union must still represent non-member employees fairly and without discrimination when dealing with employer issues like grievances.
Cannot Deny Representation:
A union cannot refuse to represent a non-member employee simply because they are not paying dues.
This Union likes to hold secrets before showing anything to thier members, like the new CBA, a summary of all union meetings, Ledger of all money transactions comming in or out, we should have open access to these things, and we are not.
We are told in person or online that questions about anything Union or Unit related is to be REJECTED IF YOUR NOT A PAYING MEMBER. this is wrong, and can be bound to legal actions if it continues.
WE AS MEMBERS AND NON MEMBERS HAVE SO MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS THIS UNION DOES NOT SHARE LIGHT ON. It seems only a handful of people get privileged information. I understand this union is representing us outside, but more than ever we need help with dealing with unfair practices of our shift command. You made a CBA, it became law, and yet this union doesn't enforce all of it. Our shift command will site what is mandated only when it benefits them. They make Operational Procedures that conflicts with ARs or even the CBA. Some of it doesn't make any since at all. Where is our Representation? I shouldn't have to grievances before you decide to take action. This is what AFSCME failed to do and was replaced. You work for us, not the other way around, especially when you get paid from our dues.
DO NOT DELETE.
All information in this post has been recorded as being writen and posted.
And since I apparently do not know my laws, let me ask you what case law is the Supreme ruling your referring to? When I do research and not referring to one individual thought process of some members here below, I see that its against the law to mandate people to pay before being rep.
So, my words are not threats, and only to inform you what everyone rights are. I am saying you keep your practices the way they are there will be members dropping dues, or even a lawsuit.
We get the turn arounds at my yard, and members like myself are confused and getting upset.
Answer those basic questions of all unit members because they might be the same questions like myself who is paying.
And yes this is a request to send information on your budget ledger of incoming and outgoing since the last 2 years. Failing to do so will set an audit from the federal government, this is how we as members makes sure our money is not being abused.
If you really want me to jump through hoops because you do not send out recaps of meeting, and you obviously do not read what i write about joining them. I will be announce and a thorn in your side, until all information is transparent. Including getting lawyers involved. Yes i am that petty because not me or anyone is above law and everyone must follow them.
