At-Will Employment Policy
(Union Employees, Employee Handbook Disclaimer)

Summary

This template is an At-Will Employment policy for union-represented employees for use in an employee handbook or manual. This template includes practical guidance and drafting notes. Because the applicable collective bargaining agreement may limit an employer's ability to discipline or terminate a union employee, a disclaimer applicable to union-represented employees must clearly state that an employer may not act in conflict with the collective bargaining agreement.
