What are the rights of groups of two or more attempting to improve working conditions?

The National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) protects employees’ rights to engage in protected concerted activities with or without a union, which are usually group activities (2 or more employees acting together) attempting to improve working conditions, such as wages and benefits. Some examples of such activities include:

  • 2 or more employees addressing their employer about improving their working conditions and pay;
  • 1 employee speaking to his/her employer on behalf of him/herself and one or more co-workers about improving workplace conditions;
  • 2 or more employees discussing pay or other work-related issues with each other.

The NLRA also protects any individual employee’s right to engage in union support, membership, and activities.

The NLRA protects an individual employee’s right not to engage in union activities or in other protected, concerted activities.
