Weingarten Rights

In 1975, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in NLRB v. J. Weingarten that employees have the right to request union representation before or during a meeting with management if they reasonably believe it could lead to discipline. This applies any time you're being questioned about your conduct or performance — not only at formal disciplinary hearings.

The right isn't automatic.Your supervisor doesn't have to tell you it exists, and it only kicks in once you actually ask for it, clearly, before or during the meeting.

Once you ask, management has three options: pause the meeting until your steward can be there, end the meeting without further questions, or let you choose between continuing without representation or ending it. What they can't do is punish you for asking, or keep questioning you after denying your request.

If you believe a meeting with management could lead to discipline, say this clearly, then stop talking:

“I believe this discussion could lead to discipline or otherwise affect my job. I'm requesting that my union steward be present before we continue, and I won't answer questions until they are.”

Not sure if a meeting qualifies? Contact us before you go in, not after.
