A recent national SHRM article describes how President Obama has revised some federal labor orders. Here are excerpts from the article: Two of the orders signed by Obama directly contravene directives signed by [former President George] Bush.
One of Obama’s new directives revokes Executive Order 13201, which required federal contractors to post a notice of nonunion employee rights concerning payment of union dues—also known as the Beck Poster. According to Obama’s order, federal contractors will no longer use the Beck Poster and will be required to post another notice that the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) will develop.
