Do you understand Weingarten rights?
It is a carrier’s responsibility to REQUEST a steward when being questioned by
management, in a situation that may lead to discipline. Management is not required
to inform a carrier of this right, so it is important that you are aware.
Weingarten Rights
If you fear your job and/or rights are in
jeopardy make this statement to your
manager: “If this discussion could in anyway lead to my being disciplined or
terminated, I respectfully request that
my union steward be present at the
meeting. Without representation,
I choose not to answer any questions.”

Last edited on: 2021-05-29
A word of caution to everyone about possible scams that are being reported. An employee recently reported an unsolicited visit to their home offering a coronavirus test. Unless you have asked your doctor or medical provider to come to your home to administer a test, you should not allow strangers in to your home, to gather personal medical information and/or run a medical test.
