Florida is what is known as a “Right to Work State”. The “Right to Work” doctrine is contained in the Florida Constitution at Article 1, Section 6 as follows:
Right to Work: The right of persons to work shall not be denied or abridged on account of membership or non-membership in any labor union or labor organization. The right of employees, by and through a labor organization, to bargain collectively shall not be denied or abridged.
