What can an employee do if s/he wants to work, but is being confronted by picketers or striking employees and blocked from entering the work site?
A. Pickets are lawful so long as they are peaceful, are conducted only on public property (i.e., sidewalks), do not block access/egress to the facility, do not interfere with the normal course of business, and do not prohibit non-striking employees from working. The University will assist those employees who want to work by providing security or transportation across the picket lines. At Berkeley, picketers have always been committed to their position but respectful of the rights and views of others.
