Labor Union Rights to Refuse Work With Non Members upheld
Albany April 1. The New York Court of Appeals held that labor union members may refuse to work with non members and may call a peaceful strike to force respect for that right. The decision in National Protective Association of Steam Fitters and Helpers v Cummins and Duff was split, with Judge Parker authoring the majority and three judges dissenting. The opinion defends unions’ ability to organize to secure better terms and to strike when aimed at legitimate organizational goals, including safety and pay considerations, while noting that strikes must be peaceful and not for malice. The ruling emphasizes workers’ right to refuse work with non members when justified by organization interests and worker safety.
