What does signing a union authorization card mean? Is it confidential?
Signing a Teamsters Local 688 authorization card means you want union representation in your workplace. Your signature does not require you to pay dues, assessments or fees. It is simply a way to gauge support, ensure enough workers are committed to forming a union and order an election at your workplace. In a Local 688 organizing campaign, only the following individuals will know you signed an authorization card: union organizer(s), rank-and-file organizing committee members and National Labor Relations Board representative. Management has no legal right to know if you or any other co-workers signed cards. In fact, it is illegal for them to interrogate workers about union activity.
