FAQ

Contrary to the right-to-work framework, Illinois is not categorized as a right-to-work state.

The Illinois Freedom to Work Act prohibits non-compete agreements between an employer and low-wage employees, including non- competes that restrict a low-wage employee from performing work for another employer that is similar to the employee's work for the employer that is party to the agreement (see Question 1).

Now that the Amendment has passed, the NLRA preemption argument is expected to be the subject of future litigation. The Amendment also appears to block Illinois from to becoming a right-to-work state. Right-to-work legislation prohibits compulsory union membership.

Specifically, the right-to-work means that employees are entitled to work in unionized workplaces without actually joining the union or paying regular union dues. They may also cancel their union membership at any time, without losing their jobs.

Hours and days of rest in every consecutive seven-day period. (a) Every employer shall allow every employee except those specified in this Section at least twenty-four consecutive hours of rest in every consecutive seven-day period in addition to the regular period of rest allowed at the close of each working day.

In Virginia, non-compete agreements are enforceable if an employer can show: the restriction is “no greater than is necessary to protect the employer's legitimate business interest”; the agreement is not excessively severe or oppressive in restricting the employee's ability to find another job or make an income; and.

Virginia is an employment-at-will state; this means the employer may terminate any employee at any time, for any reason, or for no reason. As a general rule, therefore, the employee has no right to challenge the termination. There are a few very limited exceptions.

To summarize, Illinois is not a right-to-work state. The state's legislative landscape reflects a commitment to collective bargaining, union rights, and labor relations characterized by negotiated agreements between employers and unions.

Unions are legal in Virginia; however, strikes are prohibited under state law. If your local government allows public-sector bargaining, they are required to bargain with that union.

It is hereby declared to be the public policy of Virginia that the right of persons to work shall not be denied or abridged on account of membership or nonmembership in any labor union or labor organization. Code 1950, § 40-68; 1970, c. 321.
