I just came across this fabulous free Online Webinar given
by Jessica Miller-Merrell and Jon Hyman http://www.blogging4jobs.com/webinars/unions-nlrb-social-media-webinar/ It is really great; lots of useful
information.
of Blogging4Jobs about the nature of union tactics, the current activism within the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), and the use social media for organizing. It is really interesting how aggressively unions are targeting workers at companies such as Sodexo, Walmart, and Apple to recruit people to join as members. Human Resources need to be aware that this activity is going on. It is not just union members handing out leaflets or marching around with a giant rat in front of your workplace. As companies are getting smarter about targeting their ads to individual customers, unions are also getting smarter about targeting their messages to specific employees at specific companies. They recommend preparing a rapid response team to be able to conduct an investigation quickly if a union situation erupts at your workplace and you need to protect your company’s reputation. I highly suggest checking out this Webinar:
