Court Cases Curb or AffirmWorkers Rights
If you want to know the importance of courts to workers, just ask Elizabeth Hunter, William Garraughty, Tasha Joshaway, Michael Yurkowski and Debbie Goin, all of them members of the Amalgamated Transit Union in Chicago.
They’ve had to go to court there, in a class-action case, to try to get their jobs back -- after their employer fired them for allegedly flunking criminal background checks, and didn’t give them hearings on the issue that were legally required.

IMPORTANT FMLA NEWS
Recently the union discovered that Management is requiring that employees who use FMLA on weekends must make up this time. They are requiring that these employees must make up this time on a weekend that they would normally have off. The Union’s position on this is that it is ILLEGAL for them to do this. If this is happening to you or any of your co-workers please let us know.
