NLRB Takes Exceptional Steps to Encourage & Support Union Organizing

First few Article Sentences

In the waning days of 2014 the National Labor Relations Board took exceptional steps to ensure that 2015 will be a vibrant year for unions and union organizing. In a sweeping NLRB decision related to company email systems and employee union organizing access, and newly issued regulations that stand decades of NLRB representation election procedures on their head with new “quickie” union election protocols, the NLRB has opened the door to massive union organizing in 2015 and beyond. These are extraordinary steps by the Board for all employers. These NLRB developments control for private hospitals and health care systems. For public hospitals and systems, the NLRB case regarding employee e-mail use will likely guide the Public Employment Relations Commission when PERC next addresses the permissible scope of public employer e-mail policies and practices.
