Court Strikes Down Policy Requiring Workers' Uniforms to Bear Union Insignia


The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. - A federal appeals court has ruled against a BellSouth Corp. policy that required workers to wear a uniform bearing a union insignia.

A three-judge panel on Tuesday overturned a 2001 National Labor Relations Board decision upholding the policy, which required workers to wear uniforms with both the BellSouth logo and the insignia of the Communications Workers of America.
