The National Labor Relations Board, which has leaned toward organized labor since President Obama took office two years ago, may soon ease restrictions against union worksite soliciting during organizing campaigns.
That's the opinion of Jay Krupin, a veteran labor relations attorney with the Washington, DC-based firm EpsteinBeckerGreen. Krupin says it's not clear exactly what will emerge early next year as NLRB examines issues related to union worksite access for organizing purposes. Given the new composition of the four-member board—which includes Obama's recess appointees Craig Becker and Mark G. Pearce, and Clinton appointee and Chair Wilma B. Leibman—Krupin anticipates that unions will be happier with the results than will management.
"We have a three-to-one supermajority of pro-union members of the board. They are implementing the parts of the (Employee Free Choice Act) that they couldn't get through the legislative process. The pro-labor leaning members of the board are taking that agenda and running with it," he says.
