As IAM Strike Order Drags on, National Right to Work Foundation Offers Legal Aid to Boeing Employees Who Want to Work

Foundation notifies Boeing employees that those wishing to continue working during an IAM strike should resign their memberships before returning to work

The National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation is emphasizing to Seattle-based Boeing employees that they have options to return to work even amidst International Association of Machinists (IAM) union officials’ extended strike order. Union officials announced on October 23 that their strike order against Boeing – which began well over a month ago – would continue.

A Foundation legal notice informs Boeing employees of their rights, including their right to rebuff the strike order and work to support their families as the strike is ongoing. The notice discusses why workers across the country frequently turn to the National Right to Work Foundation for free legal aid in such situations.

“The situation presents serious concerns for employees who believe there is much to lose from a union-ordered strike,” the notice reads. “That is why workers confronted with strike demands frequently contact the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation to learn how they can avoid fines and other harsh union discipline for continuing to report to work to support themselves and their families.” […]

“As this strike order continues with no clear end in sight, many Boeing workers may decide that going on strike is not the best course of action for them, and Foundation attorneys stand ready to aid these workers in defending their right to continue working and providing for their families,” commented National Right to Work Foundation President Mark Mix.
