Rule 1The employee must make a clear request for Union representation before or during the interview. The employee can't be punished for making this request. 2
Rule 2After the employee makes the request, the supervisor has 3 options. S/he mug either: 1. Grant the request and delay the interview until the Union representative arrives and has a chance to consult privately with the employee: or 2. Deny the request and end the interview immediately; or 3. Give the employee a Choice of: 1)having the interview without representation or 2) ending the interview 3
Rule 3If the supervisor denies the request and continues to ask questions, this is an unfair labor practice and the employee has a right to refuse to answer. The employee cannot be disciplined for such refusal but is required to sit there until the supervisor terminates the interview. Leaving before this happens may constitute punishable insubordination.
