The labor board is suing Starbucks for their anti-union worker guidelines, including a dress code that bans union symbols, and disallowing workers from recording their working conditions.

In a new lawsuit against Starbucks, the National Labor Relations Board is alleging that a number of the company’s employee guidelines are in violation of labor laws., the lawsuit, issued on Wednesday, takes issue with 19 sections of the company’s “Partner Guide,” which the NLRB argues are “overly-broad and discriminatory” against workers’ rights.

The handbook’s restrictions preventing workers from participating in unsanctioned interviews or generally discussing their working conditions are also an intrusion on their labor rights, the labor board finds. Altogether, the NLRB alleges that the rules all act in the service of “interfering with, restraining, and coercing employees” from exercising their right to form a union.
