ID H0605

Employers with employees in a labor organization must annually provide written or electronic notice in 14-point type stating that Idaho is a right-to-work state and that union membership and dues payment are voluntary.

The notice must inform employees they have the right to join or refrain from joining a union and to pay or refrain from paying union dues without discrimination.

State and local employers cannot provide labor organizations with greater access to employee information than the public receives under existing privacy laws.

Labor organizations may access names of state or local employees in a bargaining unit only during representation elections when collective bargaining is provided under state law or when the employer chooses to bargain.

Deliberate and bad faith violations of employee information privacy restrictions are subject to civil penalties up to $1,000 paid into the general fund, effective July 1, 2024.
