Unions to Pay for Federal Resources and Employee Time
This new law requires labor unions to pay for federal employee time spent on union activities and for the use of government agency resources like office space and equipment. The aim is to reduce taxpayer costs. Failure to pay can lead to severe consequences for unions, including losing their representative status.
Key points
Labor unions will be charged for the time federal employees spend on union activities during work hours.
Unions will incur fees for using agency resources, including office space, parking, and equipment.
Failure to pay fees on time can result in loss of union privileges, such as access to union time and agency resources, and even termination of exclusive representative certification.
Federal agencies will track union time, and employees failing to record such use may face disciplinary action.
