A recommended and regularly used aspect of union prevention strategies is the employee handbook. It is frequently the first document the employee receives, and it represents an opportunity to convey the company message on numerous items, including its perspective on unionization. Handbooks are also useful as a reference for employees seeking information on various workplace topics (e.g., vacation benefits). However, each time an employee opens their handbook, there is a strong possibility that they will be reminded of the company message regarding unions.

An idea behind Management Report is to offer readers an opportunity to read about examples of strategies and tactics that can lead to a successful union prevention effort. Occasionally, a case comes along that allows those points to be made from a different perspective. More specifically, by learning what not to do, employers can be better positioned to make decisions on what they should do. Such is the case with a recent decision from an NLRB administrative law judge in UPS Supply Chain Solutions, Inc., Case No. 32-CA-295913 (JD(SF)-14-24, May 17, 2024).

When it comes to union prevention strategies, frequently the focus is on just that: strategies and tools to communicate union-free messaging. As regular readers of ManagementReport will agree, an essential part of this approach is the element of communication. Communication, in turn, requires an understanding of your audience. After all, talking without accounting for the perspective of the listener becomes largely just noise. Therefore, this month, we focus on communicating a union-free message to the newest generation in the workforce: Gen Z.
