"Salting" abuse is the intentional placing of trained union professional organizers and agents in a merit shop facility to harass or disrupt company operations, apply economic pressure, increase operating and legal costs, and ultimately put the company out of business.

The objectives of the union agents are accomplished through filing frivolous and unfair labor practice complaints or discrimination charges against the employer with:

• the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB)
• the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
• the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)

Salting campaigns have been used successfully to cause economic harm for construction companies and are quickly expanding into other industries across the country.
