**__ KNOW YOUR WEINGARTEN RIGHTS!!! __**

In 1975, the Supreme Court ruled in the Weingarten decision that an employee is entitled to have a __union representative__ present during **ANY** interview, which may result in his or her discipline. It is up to **YOU** to insist on union representation. If you fail to do so, you may waive your rights. ** "If this discussion could in any way lead to my being disciplined or terminated, or affect my personal working conditions, I respectfully request that my union representative or steward be present at this meeting. If this discussion could lead to my being disciplined and you deny my request for representation, I choose not to answer any questions." **   Prepared by Lisa A. Scarborough, STA Secretary
