In this episode, Francine Esposito of Day Pitney explored the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) General Counsel's recent recommendations that stay-or-pay, moonlighting and non-competition agreements be deemed unlawful under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), a pivotal federal labor law that applies to unionized and non-unionized workplaces alike. Esposito explained the General Counsel advocates for broad "make-whole" relief, which would require employers to compensate employees for speculative lost wages and benefits resulting from these provisions. Esposito also addressed recent NLRB cases banning employers’ use of “captive audience meetings” and limiting what employers can tell employees about the impact of choosing to unionize, as well as additional changes likely resulting from President Trump’s reelection.
