Workplace Democracy Act

This bill amends the National Labor Relations Act and related labor laws to preserve workers' rights to join labor organizations and engage in collective bargaining. Specifically, it

• prohibits employers from classifying employees as independent contractors or supervisors to avoid employee participation in union activities;
• allows the National Labor Relation Board to certify a union, without a secret election, if it receives the consent of the majority of eligible workers;
• requires employers to begin negotiating with a new union within 10 days of its certification;
• prohibits coercion of employees to to participate in campaign activities unrelated to their job duties;
• requires employers to make disclosures of anti-labor organization activities; and
• repeals provisions allowing states to prevent labor organizations from collecting dues from nonunion workers who benefit from union representation (right to work laws).
