Description: Union alleged university violated HEERA by unilaterally implementing change in reporting of improper governmental activities and policy that fails to inform employees of Weingarten rights.
Disposition: Board dismissed charge as university’s policy was not a change from past practice since nothing in policy conflicted with past practice or contract. Employer policy that fails to inform employees of Weingarten rights is not unlawful since nothing mandates that an employer affirmatively inform employees of right to representation.
