The Burke Group does not engage in direct employee communications also called third party persuading, but recommends the services of Labor Information Services, Inc. (LIS) LIS works wih small businesses and corporations of all disciplines as well as consulting firms, independent contractors and law firms.

Direct communications with employees during union activity must be conducted in strict accordance with the definitions and guidelines provided within the Landrum-Griffin Act known as the Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act passed by the U.S. Congress in 1959. It requires that all monies paid for third party activities must be separated for reporting in specific format called an LM10 which is later posted for public record.

LIS provides skilled consulting teams of third party persuaders uniquely qualified to directly meet the challenges of communication within a multi-ethnic employee population during not only union organizing campaigns but also in circumstances that may require development and management of your message.
