As you know, it's one thing to have such a law, and it's another to avoid the disfavor you may incur by exercising such a right.

I just sent the info to my union clients. It is a pretty safe bet that the signatory contractors will know better than to raise a stink.

But you are correct about the effect of any employee protective law. I have been asked if an employer can retaliate against someone for supporting a union campaign. The answer is that such retaliation is against the law, but it can be a long arduous process to enforce the law.
