Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Right to work laws prohibit union security agreements between employers and labor unions, meaning that employees cannot be required to join a union or pay union dues as a condition of employment. This makes it more difficult for unions to organize and maintain membership, thus inhibiting union formation. Choice A is incorrect because right to work laws do not outlaw unions, only union security agreements. Choice C is incorrect because it implies that companies have the option to allow or prohibit union affiliation, which is not the case under right to work laws. Choice D is incorrect because it confuses the issues of union security and affiliation; right to work laws do not address union affiliation, only union security agreements.
