Washington
D.C. – The National Labor Relations Board announces that, to facilitate the
resolution of legal challenges, it is postponing the effective date of its
final rule modifying the Agency’s Representation Case Procedures from April 16,
2020 to May 31, 2020. The notice will be published later in the week.
The
Board published the final rule on December 13, 2019. The modifications
contained in the final rule retain the essentials of the Agency’s existing
representation rules but allow for a fairer and more-efficient election
process.
The
final rule includes clarifications to procedures prior to an election that
better ensure the opportunity for litigation and resolution of unit scope and
voter eligibility issues. The changes also permit parties additional time to
comply with the various pre-election requirements instituted in 2014.
Established
in 1935, the National Labor Relations Board is an independent federal agency
that protects employees and employers, and unions from unfair labor practices
and protects the right of private sector employees to join together, with or
without a union, to improve wages, benefits and working conditions. The NLRB
conducts hundreds of workplace elections and investigates thousands of unfair
labor practice charges each year.
