Case Study:
Melvin Nance was chairman of the fair employment practices committee for the UAW Local 212 at a Chrysler Corporation plant. In his capacity as chairman, he filed a charge with the NLRB, alleging that the union had failed to fairly represent a union member in the pursuit of a grievance with Chrysler. When the union leadership learned of the charge Nance had filed against the union with the NLRB, they removed him from his position as chairman of the fair employment practices committee. Nance filed another charge with the Board, alleging that his removal from union office for filing a charge with the Board was a coercive unfair labor practice in violation of Section 8(b)(1)(A). The union maintained that the removal was a strictly internal union affair not prohibited by Section 8(b)(1)(A), as Nance’s removal did not affect his employment status or cause him to suffer any loss of seniority, money, or union membership. The union stated that it had the right to fill its offices with whoever it believed would best serve the union and its membershipHas the union violated NLRA by re moving Nance from his union office? Decide. [UAW Local 212, 257 NLRB 637, 108 LRRM 1003]
