Anyone here do HR for an organization with both union and non union employees? My organization is very small consisting of 8 union employees and 7 non union employees. We do not have an official handbook and I’ve been working with Paychex HR team to put one together. It’s a bit frustrating because I feel my rep doesn’t know too much about mixed environments. I am trying to distribute a memo with the code of conduct policies. I wrote up a nice policy and at the end I wrote: (rest in comments)

Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with your approach. However, would it be too difficult to just create two separate memos since that's the suggestion of the rep? I mean, they can be the exact same memo, one with the added disclosure for union employees and the other without?

She’s implying that the memo for the union employees has to be distributed by the union representative to the employees as if we (as management ) don’t have authority to distribute any policies to employees and as if the union employees only have to abide by the terms on their CBA and not any other policies. I’m not a pro regarding management rights when it comes to these matters with the union as this is a first for me and no one else in my organization has ever even thought of creating and distributing an employee handbook or any HR policies to any employees within the 150+ years this organization has been in business

To what extent to platforms facilitate union formation? To what extent do they discourage it? You'd think websites like glassdoor, linkedin, and this one would all be in an incredibly powerful position from the point of view of union organizing and the way they design the site could work for us or against us. So I'm asking two questions - how do we use the sites to build solidarity and organize unions but also can the sites better facilitate this process?
