Proposed Rule Would Require ALL Employers to Post Notices

Encouraging Employees to Organize

All National, State, and Local Electrical Trade Associations, ALL Small Business's and the public have until Tuesday, February 22 to submit comments on the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) proposed rule requiring employers to post notices informing employees of their rights to bargain collectively, distribute union literature, or engage in other union activities without reprisal.

If you would like to submit your own comments, you may use this template as a guide. If you draft your own comments, make sure to include “RIN (3412-AA07)” on the comments. Submit your comments by visiting http://www.regulations.gov and selecting “Proposed Rule” as the Document Type and searching for 3142-AA07.

ALL private-sector employers (including labor organizations) whose workplaces fall under the National Labor Relations Act NLRA would be required to post the employee rights notice where other workplace notices are typically posted. If an employer communicates with employees primarily by email or other electronic means, the notice would be posted electronically as well.
The NLRB issued a statement saying: "The intended effects of this action are to increase knowledge of the NLRA among employees, to better enable the exercise of rights under the statute, and to promote statutory compliance by employers and unions."
An NLRB News Release on the Proposed Rule can be found here, and a sample of the notice can be viewed here.
