Epstein Becker Green was featured in HR Dive, in “Expect a Lot of NLRB Rulings in the Coming Months, Chair Says,” by Kate Tornone.
Following is an excerpt:
Employers can expect to see an increase in National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) rulings in the coming months, the board’s chair told attendees at a Sept. 14 conference. “For sure, we’re going to be very, very busy as an agency,” said Philip A. Miscimarra, who has declined the offer of a second term and will leave the Board in December.
Every time a board member’s term ends, it’s important for NLRB to issue rulings on “as many cases as possible” that the departing member has participated in, Miscimarra said. If it doesn’t, those cases must be reheard and that can delay rulings up to four years, he told attendees at Epstein Becker & Green’s annual workforce management briefing in New York.
