The Washington Examiner reports that union allies in Congress are promoting legislation (the Schedules that Work Act) that would “give employees more rights to demand flexible work schedules and demand an end to long, irregular work shifts.”
The language of the bill “essentially makes it unlawful for an employer to punish an employee for demanding a different work schedule.”
As the Examiner notes, however, this bill “will come in handy for anybody applying for the lead organizer position at the Retail Action Project [a Big Labor organization], since its listing on UnionJobs.com states that applicants must have a ‘[w]illingness to work long, irregular, evening or weekends as needed.’”
Same goes for the AFL-CIO’s senior field representative position for Arizona and Colorado, who must be willing “to work long hours and weekends as required” and have an “[a]bility to travel on a regular basis as needed, and for extended periods of time.”
And jobs such as these aren’t the only ones in labor organizations. Apparently, with Big Labor, it’s “do as I say, not as I do.”
Which is hardly surprising.
