A report released today by American Rights at Work reveals how telecom industry giant Verizon Communications is using a heavy arsenal of intimidation and harassment to fight against workers who are trying to form a union to improve their wages, benefits and working conditions.
The report, Broken Promises: Verizon Neglects its Commitment to Provide Good Jobs and Quality Service, by the nonprofit labor policy and advocacy group, provides first-hand accounts of management’s abusive and intimidating behavior toward Verizon Business technicians who are trying to organize through the Communication Workers of America (CWA) and the Electrical Workers (IBEW).
Verizon faces National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) hearings shortly for its anti-union tactics in this and another Verizon Business location in Pennsylvania.
