DC: A federal appeals court ruled Friday that an Obama-era labor law that made businesses responsible for labor violations committed by contractors was too broad, Reuters reports.
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ruled in 2015 that companies and franchisers with “indirect and direct control” of employees could be held liable for labor violations committed by contractors or franchisees. The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 that the board did not sufficiently define “indirect” control and sent the 2015 decision back to the board for a more restricted explanation.
The 2015 NLRB ruling overturned more than two decades of precedent while placing businesses at increased risk of violating labor laws. The ruling also empowered unions to negotiate directly with a franchise’s corporate headquarters if franchise employees sought to unionize. more here
Say goodbye to my little friend…
After 8 years of that filthy marxist rampaging through our government we now devote at least 50% of our efforts ridding the republic of his detritus. The entire nation needs a bar of soap.
Barry, may you die in a water hazard under your own golf cart
Corrupt ruling by the seditious gay Kenyan commie is another example of why morally bankrupt lawyers love that traitor. Surprised it took President Trump this long to make it right.
