NLRB reverses ruling on employer equal time speeches
The National Labor Relations Board reversed a policy requiring employers to give unions equal time during working hours for solicitation. The board said company premises are the proper venue for employer views and that neither side should address workers on company time during a 24 hour period before a union representation election. The decision marks a shift in how campaigns on site are handled.
