NLRB Finds Merit with Local 727’s Unfair Labor Practice Charge Against Osco
Region 13 of the National Labor Relations Board has found merit with the unfair labor practice charge Teamsters Local 727 filed in January over Jewel/Osco’s unlawful refusal to provide information about its employee benefits plans unless the union signed a confidentiality agreement. The Board has issued a complaint against the company.
“We’re happy that Region 13 agreed with the union that Osco can’t refuse to provide important information the union requests,” said John Coli Jr., President of Local 727. “This is the type of information that should be readily available to all employees since it directly affects their work life.”
The case is now being set for a hearing. The union will keep members updated as the process moves forward.
Anyone with questions should contact Local 727 Business Representative Zach Frankenbach at (847) 696-7500 or [email protected].
Nothing in this article should be read as the union’s waiver of any legal argument, position or additional grievance. The union does not forfeit its right to make any and all supplemental arguments.
