Ban on Union Recordings of Team Meetings Okay; Release of Worker Challenging Contractor Classification Okay Because Not Prompted by Concerted Activity: NLRB Division of Advice | Practical Law
The Office of the General Counsel of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) recently released an advice memorandum finding that an employer's refusal to allow union representatives to record team meetings and investigatory interviews did not violate Section 8(a)(1) of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). In a second memorandum, the General Counsel concluded that an employer lawfully discharged a worker who had challenged his independent contractor classification because the worker had not engaged in protected concerted activity.
