Balloting for Closed Shops
Abstract
By 1st November 1984 all union membership agreements (whether written statements or informal agreements) to afford an employer a defence under sec. 58(3) of the Employment Protection (Consolidation) Act 1978 (EPCA) to a dismissal otherwise unfair under sec. 58(1)(c) EPCA will require to be approved by a ballot of the class of employees to which the union membership agreement (UMA) related. To assist employers and trade union members in this balloting process the Secretary of State for Employment has revised the Code of Practice on Closed Shop Agreements and Arrangements.
