Employees have the right to representation when called to a meeting by administrators in certain circumstances. “Weingarten Rights” give employees the right to request union representation during a meeting if the following conditions are met:

• The meeting is an investigatory interview.

• The employee reasonably believes that disciplinary action may result from the meeting.

• The employee requests representation.

"If this discussion could lead to my being disciplined or terminated, I respectfully request that my association representative be included in the meeting. Without representation, I choose not to answer any questions.”

If an advocate is not available, an employee can ask that the meeting be postponed.
