NLRB Alters 'Captive Audience Meeting' Timeline in Union-Friendly Decision

摘要

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB or Board) recently overruled a longstanding precedent regarding the permissible interval of time to hold "captive audience meetings" in advance of a mail ballot election in Guardsmark, LLC. In doing so, the NLRB augmented a rule established in its 1959 decision in Oregon Washington Telephone Co. ILMA members should take note of the decision and ensure that their activities are congruent with the new bright-line test articulated by the Board.
