A BILL To amend the National Labor Relations Act to clarify employer rights with regard to hiring.

AI Summary

This bill, the Truth in Employment Act of 2021, amends the National Labor Relations Act to clarify employer rights regarding hiring. The bill's findings state that the practice of "salting" (where union organizers seek employment with non-union employers to organize workers or harm the business) has evolved into a form of harassment not contemplated when the National Labor Relations Act was enacted. The bill aims to preserve the balance of rights between employers, employees, and labor organizations, and alleviate pressure on employers to hire individuals who seek employment primarily to disrupt the workplace or harm the employer's business.
