A decline in union membership in the United States might be attributable to a sharp rise in firing of pro-union activists during union organizing campaigns, according to a study released Thursday.
The study, by the Center for Economic and Policy Research, a nonprofit think tank, analyzed published data from the National Labor Relations Board. The NLRB data used in the study comes from the agency's work reinstating workers who it finds have been illegally fired for being involved in union organizing campaigns. |
