Employees - union or not - have no legal right to interfere with the employer's duty to investigate. So neither negotiation nor arbitration enter into it.

Those options are useful in limiting what employers do with the FINDINGS of unilateral investigations.

Is Oklahoma a at will state?

Yes, Arkansas is an at-will employment state. An employuee or employer can sever ties at any time for pretty much any reason. However, if your position is covered by a personal service contract or a labor agreement the employer is bound by that contract or agreement. Also, no state or federal anti-discrimination laws can be violated.


Can a domestic partner be added to UAW insurance?

This is up to the employer. I personally belonged to the UAW, had insurance and my domestic partner was covered. However, this depends upon what agreement your specific employer has with the UAW local you belong to. Of course, if you mean that you are an employee of the UAW, then that is a different question.


Can my employer lower my rate of pay in New York State?

In New York State, an employer can lower your rate of pay, but they must provide you with notice of the change. If you're an at-will employee, they can generally change your pay rate at any time, but it cannot be retroactive. If you have a contract or are covered by a collective bargaining agreement, the terms of that agreement may restrict the employer's ability to change your pay rate. Always consult with a legal professional for specific situations.

Who Pays a union representative to attend a disciplinary hearing?

There is not a charge in my union for a representative to go to a hearing, I've never heard of that: hearing representation is part of being an officer... Is payment stipulated in your contract somewhere? If you pay union dues this is usually covered by that, but if you participate in an "Open Shop" where union membership isn't cumpulsory and you chose not to belong there could be a fee for representation. you must refer to any bargaining agreement you and the union has with the employer. you pay union dues to have someone represent in a hearing if you belong to a union. In the case of an arbitration, the loser pays. As a side note here the cost of an arbitration hearing is also covered by the union. Union's also have an attorney and a business agent on staff who's job it is to guide you and your local union through the process and will be there during arbitration hearings. All disciplinary hearings should be attended by a union rep who can get the grievance process started and is there to take notes. You can choose your own rep within your local union to attend with you but the employer has no obligation to call that rep in for you should there be one already on duty. I would advise you to also take notes of what happens during this hearing. During the disciplinary process it will all come down technicalities and be sure the time limits for grievances are followed and a smart union rep will know that he or she can halt the disciplinary hearing should a representative of the employer becomes harrassing. if this happens be sure it's noted and if the employer refuses to halt the meeting this is in violation of your rights and like i said it comes down to technicalities.


Can an employer lay you off but offer part time for just one month?

Unless your position was covered under some kind of union labor agreement or personal contract for services, you pretty much work 'at the pleasure' of the employer. If you are going to be laid off anyway, but given the opportunity to earn at least one month more, I think I'd take it.


For social security purposes what conditions must an individual meet to be classified as a covered employer?

Other than very special cases of government employees, that pay a very similar contribution, ALL employees are covered (or required to be contributed) employees. Period. If not an employee, the contribution that would be paid by the employer, is paid by the "contractor" or "self employed", but they are still covered. There are no elections or options for either the employer or employee in this.
