Union Grievance Filing Steps
Summary
Unions must represent members fairly, addressing grievances without discrimination. If a union fails, members can appeal internally or file a complaint with the NLRB. Employers must pay wages on time, regardless of financial issues. In California, unpaid wages can lead to waiting time penalties, interest, and liquidated damages. Filing a wage claim with the California Labor Commissioners Office is an option if wages are delayed.Full Conversation
