Hello;
My question is: what constitutes a member of a union who is deemed to be not in good standing. What are the definitions, or examples of a member not in good standing, and can their union card be pulled as a result.

I would think that would vary by union. I'm not a union member, but for me to be an employee of good standing, I have to ome to work on time, in uniform, work efficiently, follow company standards and policies. So to not be in good standing would be if I kept not wearing my uniform. Or if I were regularly late for work. Or if I weren't following company standards. Doesn't your union have any sort of handbook you can refer to for specifics?

Hi curious55
Thanks for the reply, however, I'm not a member of any union either. Was enquiring about this situation that is happening at a location where a union is present and where there is a very hostile employer involved.
I appreciate your reply though. Thank you.
