(Part One) Uncovering Legal Landmines: What Employers Need to Know About Labor Law and Labor Relations

Presented by Kara M. Maciel and Letitia Silas

This program provides unionized and non-unionized employers a foundational overview of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and its role in enforcing the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). Participants will learn how the NLRA applies in the workplace, the protections it provides employees engaging in concerted activities concerning terms and conditions of employment, and the obligations and rights of employers under the law. We will also explore the NLRB’s standard for evaluating the lawfulness of workplace rules such as employee handbooks and policies. Through real-world examples and case studies, this course will help employers understand their rights and responsibilities under the NLRA and best practices for ensuring compliance and informed decision-making in workplace relations.

This virtual program runs 2.5 hours, followed by a 1-hour live Q&A session with the creators of the program and attorneys in CMC’s Labor & Employment Practice – Chair, Kara M. Maciel, and Partner, Letitia Silas. This is a valuable opportunity to have all your labor-related questions answered face-to-face.
