Please join us on Thursday, May 14th as Dr. Scott Decker presents.
Dr. Decker will be providing us with a an udpate regarding the National Labor Relations Act and Recent NLRB Developments.The National Labor Relations Act was enacted in 1935, amended in 1947 and 1959, and remained fairly static since that time. It is federal law that governs private sector labor law through the actions of the National Labor Relations Board. While there have always been policy fluctuations as the Presidency moved back and forth between the political parties, thus changing the makeup of the Board, recent Supreme Court rulings and aggressive NLRB policy changes have the potential to significantly impact private sector labor relations. +
