The "Worker Privacy Act" proposes amendments to the National Labor Relations Act, primarily focusing on enhancing worker privacy during union representation elections. It mandates that when the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) directs or approves an election, employers must provide a voter list to petitioning labor organizations within two business days. This list is to include employee names and only one additional form of personal contact information (such as a phone number, email, or mailing address) that has been chosen in writing by the employee . The bill further stipulates that the failure of an employer to provide this voter list as required constitutes an unfair labor practice . Additionally, it establishes new protections regarding the use of this personal information by labor organizations. It would be considered an unfair labor practice for a union to fail to protect this information, use it for purposes other than the representation proceeding, or continue to use it after the proceeding concludes. However, unions are still permitted to collect and use personal information that employees voluntarily provide directly to them.
