Charter School Teachers and Employees: Know Your Rights! 

Today, the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation has published its newest "Know Your Rights" page, this one geared to charter school teachers and employees who are forced to accept union officials' "representation," even if the workers want nothing to do with the union. 

National Right to Work Foundation staff attorneys compiled a list of rights charter school teachers and employees have in the workplace with the specific goal to enlighten charter school employees that they can make decisions in an atmosphere free of threats, harassment, coercion, or misrepresentation.

The Foundation is also publishing a new brochure (pdf) for workers who want to know more about their rights working in a unionized charter school workplace. You can download the tri-fold brochure here (pdf).

I'll pay happily.

Shoot I payed in $1950 in union dues last year. I made $49,900 last year, plus my employer paid in $19,500 towards my insurance, pension, apprenticeship, and retirees supplements. Nearly $70,000 combined for 2011.
My non-union conterparts are making any where from $20,000 to $55,000. Then they have to fund their own insurance and pension if they can afford it.
So I will pay my union dues w/o thinking twice. If I listened to people on this website I wouldn't be able to afford my house or retire at an older age. I can't roof forever. A persons body can only take so much damage from hard labor.

Funny

Your massive salary and benefits aren't helping you. When it came to put a roof on my house I selected a non-union contractor. They were thousands less than their union counterparts. I am sure you do the exact same thing when you need work at home. Union strong, unless your paying for it.

Funny

I've been around the roofing industry and there's one saying that holds true. "A cheap roof is the most expensive roof you can buy".

Construction Worker

Well since I make a good wage, I am able to support my fellow union workers. I drive American made, union made vehicles.
Maybe if you stood up for decent pay and benefits too, you to could afford decent workers.
Since I am a construction worker, I don't hire people to work on my house. I DO IT. Wait I do hire plumbers and they are union workers. Maybe you should think before you speak, not everyone is looking to undercut peoples wages like you.
Hmm that non-union roofing company on your house, how many of them could speak english if you asked them a question?

ill pay happily

some of these websites are misleading, they call themselves something but when you go into them they try to convince you of something else, beware of bait and swith smoke and mirrors
