X-Originating-IP: [152.2.242.193] From: "Jen A" To: Labor-Rap@csf.colorado.edu Subject: Salting Information Request Date: Wed, 07 Oct 1998 07:19:27 PDT Hello all, I am looking into a project regarding salting and I was wondering if anyone might be able to point me in the direction of getting information about the proportion of union salting attempts to salting hires. I am trying to use NLRB cases as a way of studying salting but I need to know the kind of selection bias I'll be dealing with. Also, if you have any anecdotes, broad estimates, or advice about studying salting in *general*, please let me know that too. I would really appreciate any kind of information you all could provide because I have much to learn about this strategy. I have posted similar requests on other labor listservs and in case anyone is suspicious of my request about salting, please know that I am a pro-union sociology person. All information will be kept extremely confidential and if you wish, we can set up alternate ways of arranging a talk. If anyone has any questions about why I am studying salting, I am happy to discuss that too. ** Please e-mail me directly at galaxie300@hotmail.com Apologies to those who have gotten this message before on publabor or labnews.
