union-security clause

Read a random definition: motion for a summary judgment

A quick definition of union-security clause:

A union-security clause is a rule in a contract between a union and an employer that helps protect the union from other groups that might try to compete with it. This clause is meant to make sure that all employees in a workplace are part of the union, even if they don't want to be. It's like a special rule that helps the union stay strong and protect its members.

A more thorough explanation:

A union-security clause is a provision in a union contract that aims to protect the union from employers, nonunion employees, and competing unions. This clause is designed to ensure that all employees in a workplace are members of the union or pay union dues.

For example, a union-security clause may require that all employees in a workplace become members of the union within a certain period of time after being hired. Alternatively, it may require that all employees pay union dues, even if they choose not to become members of the union.

These examples illustrate how a union-security clause can help a union maintain its power and influence in a workplace. By ensuring that all employees are either members of the union or paying union dues, the union can negotiate better wages, benefits, and working conditions for all employees.
