UAW Conflict-Of-Interest Disclosure

A man handing over the keys to another person.

Labor organization officers and employees (other than exclusively clerical or custodial employees) who have directly or indirectly held any legal or equitable interest in, received any payments from, or engaged in any transactions or arrangements with certain employers or businesses must file a report with U.S. Department of Labor.  This report is submitted on a Form LM-30 and is required to make public any actual or likely conflict between the personal financial interests of union officers or employees and their obligations to the union and its members.

So far it appears that each UAW Officer to make a guilty plea has violated the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, as amended (LMRDA) and failed to file these LM-30 (conflict-of-interest) forms correctly.

Union officials must disclose whether they directly or indirectly: (1) held an interest; (2) engaged in a transaction or arrangements (including loans); or (3) received income, payment or other benefit with monetary value from anyone doing business with the labor union or Employer(s) of union ‘represented’ (or seeking to represent) employees. And, it is a big deal not to file the form correctly or failure to file the disclosure.

The labor organization officer or employee required to sign the Form LM-30 is personally responsible for its filing and accuracy. Under the LMRDA, this individual is subject to criminal penalties for willful failure to file a required report and/or for false reporting. False reporting includes making any false statement or misrepresentation of a material fact while knowing it to be false, or for knowingly failing to disclose a material fact in a required report or in the information required to be contained in it or in any information required to be submitted with it. The reporting labor organization officer or employee required to sign Form LM-30 is also subject to civil prosecution for violations of filing requirements. Section 210 of the LMRDA provides that “whenever it shall appear that any person has violated or is about to violate any of the provisions of this title, the Secretary may bring a civil action for such relief (including injunctions) as may be appropriate.†[Emphasis added]
