Passed in 1935, the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) provides rights and protections to almost all of the private sector workforce. The NLRA does not just apply to unionized workforces. Employees without a union are also protected. The interpretation of the law is constantly evolving. Understanding the foundations of the NLRA, the basics of the Act, how the National Labor Relation Board functions, and how unfair labor practice charges and union organizing petitions are processed is essential. Because this is not a static area of the law, being aware of the recent changes is critical. Among other things, the NLRA has significant impacts noncompete agreements, settlement and severance agreements, and handbook policies. The process by which unions are certified is also in flux. Individuals who practice in the area of employment law should be aware of NLRA’s broad reaching scope. This session will provide those fundamentals.
