New Labour Law Plans
Abstract
The Engineering Employers' Federation supports the broad intentions of the Employment Bill, which received its second reading on December 17. However, it has reservations over the proposed provision which would allow union members in a closed shop area to object on grounds of personal conviction to being a member of a particular union. It accepts the right of an employee not to join any union on grounds of personal conviction; but fears that the provision as drafted could prompt union members to try to change unions and that this could unsettle bargaining arrangements and provoke inter‐union rivalry. The Federation sets out its views.
