5.0 out of 5 stars
High quality "FAQ" on workplace justice written for laymen.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Rights of Employees and Union Members, Second Edition: The Basic ACLU Guide to the Rights of Employees and Union Members (ACLU Handbook) (Paperback)
As the ACLU points out, "The Constitution does not apply to the private sector.....(but) People should not have to hang up the Bill of Rights at the time clock or the office door. Employees are not pieces of equipment. Treating them with dignity and fairness is not inconsistent with good, competitive, management." ( http://www.aclu.org/issues/worker/iswr.html)
Lots of luck convincing your boss that you should not ,for example, be required to answer incriminating questions. Lots of luck with discussions of due process , hearsay evidence at hearings, etc., etc., ad nauseam. My boss just doesn't get it. He says "The next thing you'll want is to elect bosses." Good idea, but its time has not yet come; however it would simplify things immensely if we were looking at a system of justice at work that was similar to what we see outside in REAL life. Isn't the pay you earn as real a "property" as any other? No one should be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, even at work.
This ACLU handbook may help. It covers, in question and answer form, what meager rights one does have in everything from hiring, to discipline and termination. After you (and your boss?) read it let's try to get together and "revolutionize" workplace justice.<HTML

The book arrived days after I bought it online. If you are in a Union, this is the book.
