Food allergy issues at work is an emerging problem that all employers should take seriously. Robert Iafolla at Bloomberg has highlighted my research on this topic. news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-re… My research, which will appear in the Boston College Law Review, is here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

So apparently I get to practice my arbitration skills bc I need to sue Sears Home Services. Whatever you do, stay away from this company. As soon as they need to follow through a claim they no-show me for 3 separate appts. And there's no way to talk to a local person. Ridiculous.

And even if NLRB ALJs have unconstitutional just cause protection the most sensible remedy would be to remove that protection. Not prevent the entire agency from doing its Congress-mandated job.

The post-strike Writers Guild and SAG-AFTRA collective-bargaining agreements have something to say about this. Soon, I'll post my draft of "Labor Regulation of AI," which addresses this issue. Based on my Piper Lecture, to be publiched by Chicago-Kent L. Rev.

Frances Perkins was a trailblazer who revolutionized workers' rights– securing Social Security, the minimum wage, and banning child labor. We're calling for a national monument to honor her legacy. It’s time she gets the recognition she deserves. newsweek.com/its-time-natio…

This is interesting and important work by derek guy. But to clarify one thing—employees are still entitled to minimum wage even when they are compensated through piecework. What this story describes are violations of the minimum wage rule (all too common).

Big complaint issued against Starbucks at the NLRB, alleging the company cut hours for thousands of union members at 290 stores without bargaining. Attorney estimates the backpay amount in the case could be "north of $30 million." huffpost.com/entry/starbuck…

It’s about time! Really should be everywhere given how prevalent employment law issues are. And, you know, that the vast majority of working age adults are employees or employers.

Today's strong public support for unions has translated into more workers filing for union representation—union election petitions are up 27% over the last fiscal year and have more than doubled since FY 2021. nlrb.gov/news-outreach/…

Of union elections tallied since the 2023 election rule took effect in December, 45% were tallied within 30 days of the filing of the petition, compared to only 13% in FY 2023.

Just to reiterate, the court assumed the tweet violate the NLRA but held that the NLRB could not order it deleted because it was protected by the First Amendment. The question is whether the court would bar an NLRA violation itself on free speech grounds. (It shouldn’t but 🤷‍♂️)
