Biden admin bans employers from discussing unionization with 'captive audience' employees
Fox News
The Biden administration's National Labor Relations Board issued an opinion Wednesday that bars businesses from requiring employees to hear their thoughts on unionization.
"Ensuring that workers can make a truly free choice about whether they want union representation is one of the fundamental goals of the National Labor Relations Act. Captive audience meetings—which give employers near-unfettered freedom to force their message about unionization on workers under threat of discipline or discharge—undermine this important goal," NLRB Chairman Lauren McFerran said in a Wednesday press release. "Today’s decision better protects workers’ freedom to make their own choices in exercising their rights under the Act, while ensuring that employers can convey their views about unionization in a noncoercive manner."
The NLRB, an independent federal agency with leaders who were appointed by President Biden, articulated multiple reasons for why they believe "captive audience" meetings violate the law.
