Right to Work
Missouri is currently debating Right to Work Legislation.
As an owner of a union shop with a contract to only employ union workers, what does a change to RTW actually mean?
Under my agreement, I cannot hire non union members to perform the trade as defined within our contract. I would not think that any newly enacted laws would supersede my current agreements.
If I understand RTW correctly, RTW outlaws the clause that prohibits me from hiring non union tradespersons.
The union contract stipulates all wages, benefits, conditions, etc. as well as union fees and dues.
Under RTW, can I hire non-union workers at non-union wages and benefits to work beside the union members without violating a union contract? Or do the unions typically allow their members to work beside the non-union employees as long as wages and benefits are standardized? Right now, my employees are not allowed to work on a project if non-union tradespersons are also on site without special permissions such as dual-gates.
