News from NAW:
In another of our many efforts to restore sound labor policy after years of pro-labor activism, NAW has joined in another amicus brief in a case before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). In this case, the Board is considering whether inappropriate employee activity and conduct should forfeit the protection of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), and whether handbook rules that prohibit that behavior should be permissible. Specifically, the Board is considering whether employee activity/behavior that is – among other things – profane, sexually explicit, racially insensitive, degrading, repugnant, bullying, uncivil, etc., should be considered protected activity.

CDW (the Coalition for a Democrat Workplace, which NAW helps manage), NAW and our fellow amici argued, of course, that such behavior should forfeit the protection of the NLRA.
As an aside, CDW and allied organizations have filed more than 50 amicus briefs since 2010, and numerous additional comments and motions. Click here to see all motions, briefs and comments, as well as numerous letters.
