Now that the NLRB has reached a quorum and appointed a new General Counsel, Labor Law Insider host Tom Godar sits down for a timely conversation with Insider veteran, Terry Potter. Terry’s experience as a former NLRB attorney and his decades in private practice guiding employers make this a must-listen episode. The new Board will change the way it tackles issues of union elections, remedies for unfair labor practices, and the scope and analysis of activities to be protected under the National Labor Relations Act. Recent changes, including President Trump’s appointment of an Acting General Counsel who has withdrawn certain advice memoranda and added interpretive declarations, signal that the Board will continue to move in a management-friendly direction in the coming years. In part 1 of the podcast Tom and Terry discuss the new appointments, explore the changes in interpretation, and the probable impact upon employers, labor unions, and employees. Part 2 will continue this insightful analysis and offer options for employers as they navigate the ever-evolving world of labor law.
