To amend the National Labor Relations Act to protect worker privacy, and for other purposes.
Summary
The Worker Privacy Act amends the National Labor Relations Act to regulate the sharing and use of worker personal information during union representation elections. When the National Labor Relations Board directs or approves a union election, employers must provide labor organizations with a voter list containing employee names and one form of contact information chosen by each employee in electronic format within two business days. Labor organizations are prohibited from selling, sharing, or using the personal information for purposes outside of the representation proceeding, such as for political activism, and must not use the information after the election concludes. The law does not restrict labor organizations from using personal information that workers voluntarily provide directly to them. The National Labor Relations Board must issue regulations implementing these requirements within nine months.
