Latest OLMS Enforcement Info Available
Posted by: Press Staff (October 31, 2008, 03:56 PM)
The U.S. Department of Labor announced the latest enforcement figures from the Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) last week, and the results were extremely positive for rank-and-file workers. According to a Department press release, "The office's totals for fiscal year 2008 (which ended on Sept. 30, 2008) are 102 convictions and 130 indictments, with restitution of more than $3.2 million."
OLMS is the only government agency dedicated to protecting the rights of dues-paying union members. Unfortunately, the Democrat-controlled Congress has gone on the attack against OLMS, slashing its funding by some $2 million and questioning its work to protect the rights of workers and aggressively enforce federal labor law. Thankfully, as these new enforcement figures show, OLMS has not allowed the Democrats' roadblocks to stand in the way of its important work.
