Highlights From the NLRB’s Most Recent Enforcement Statistics

During the Obama Administration, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB or Board), which enforces the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), was especially aggressive in expanding its jurisdiction beyond its traditional role of resolving labor-management disputes, to include targeting a wide variety of common sense employer policies and practices that have little direct relationship to federal labor law. As a result, employers increasingly had to take NLRB interpretations into consideration when formulating company policy.
