Union Auto Workers Job Protection Act
HR 5338, the Union Auto Workers Job Protection Act, requires federal agencies to mandate detailed labor and safety information from contractors bidding on vehicle assembly contracts. Specifically, bidders must disclose plant locations, average/minimum/maximum wages, temporary worker counts, and any labor (NLRB) or safety (OSHA) violations at each facility. This applies directly to motor vehicle assembly employers (like auto plants) and affects federal contracts for vehicle assembly. The bill also prohibits federal spending on delivery vehicles unless contractors agree to remain neutral in union organizing and comply with union neutrality agreements, as seen in the Postal Service's Oshkosh Defense contract.
