NLRB Board Member Kent Y. Hirozawa recently shared with the
attendees of Epstein, Becker & Green, New York, NY’s 32nd Annual Client
Labor and Employment Briefing his views on the current Board and what to expect
from it.
Hirozawa’s discussed areas where the Board was likely to
focus in the coming months and well into 2014.
Specifically, he noted that Chairman Pearce was likely to drive the
Board back towards rule-making. The
Board has previously attempted to impose a requirement that employers post a
Notice of Employee Rights but the rule was rejected by the Courts. A new fully confirmed Board may take another
stab at it.
Hirozawa specifically noted that the Board is likely to
readdress election procedure regulations.
Now with a fully confirmed Board, employers need to beware of what new
election regulations might look like.
Employers should expect the frequency of Board decisions to
pick- up significantly. Additionally, with rule-making back on the
front-burner, employers should examine their employee relation’s strategies and
programs. In what seems to be a
recurring theme with GMCS clients over the last 90 days, all employers should
take a close look at their policies and work rules from a Section 7
perspective.
