Labor-Management Reporting And Disclosure Act (LMRDA)

Labor-Management Reporting And Disclosure Act (LMRDA)

The Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, as amended (LMRDA) (also known as the Landrum-Griffin Act), grants certain rights to union members and protects their interests by promoting democratic procedures within labor organizations. The LMRDA establishes:

	A Bill of Rights for union members.
	Reporting requirements for labor organizations, union officers and employees, employers, labor-relations consultants, and surety companies.
	Standards for the regular election of union officers.
	Safeguards for protecting labor organization funds and assets.

The Secretary of Labor enforces certain provisions of the LMRDA and has delegated that authority to the Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) of the Department of Labor's Employment Standards Administration. Other provisions may only be enforced by union members through a private suit in a Federal district court.
