S.3124

The Protection on the Picket Line Act amends the National Labor Relations Act to safeguard employees from harassment and abuse during protected.

The Protection on the Picket Line Act amends the National Labor Relations Act to protect employees from harassment and abuse during activities protected under section 7. Employers can take disciplinary action against employees for such harassment or abuse, but it will not be considered an unfair labor practice if the General Counsel shows the employee engaged in protected activity, the employer knew of it, and the employer had animus against that activity. Additionally, the employer must prove they would have taken the same action regardless of the protected activity.
