High Court expands union rights in labor secretaries ruling
The Supreme Court with a 5-4 vote restored full labor law protection to most front office workers with access to confidential records, excluding only those handling direct labor relations. The decision orders Mary Weatherman reinstated with back pay at Hendricks County Rural Electric in Danville Indiana. It also returns to the 7th Circuit the Beaver Dam case involving 18 workers seeking union representation. In a separate ruling, inmates under Youth Corrections Act may lose special privileges if later sentenced for prison crimes.
