Quizplus · Accepted Answer

There is no federal law that mandates employers to require their workers to join a union after a specific period of employment. The National Labor Relations Act protects employees' rights to join or not join a union and prohibits employers from discriminating against workers who decide to join a union. Therefore, the union's request would violate federal labor law if forced upon the employer. However, in Garden Variety, Inc.'s case, since the company does not require union membership as a condition of employment, the union cannot demand that the employer change its policy in violation of any federal employment law.
