Feds issue mandatory union rights poster. Funny video follows…

Back on August 26, in this post, I gave the heads up that the National Labor Relations Board would require most private-sector employers to post a notice, in a conspicuous location, informing employees of their rights under the National Labor Relations Act, which includes the right to form a union.

That poster is now available for download. You can find a copy of it here. Copies also are available from any of the NLRB’s regional offices. 

My law firm has an e-Alert that went out yesterday about the poster. You can read that here. Or, you can check out the NLRB’s frequently asked questions about the posting requirement here. For even more information on how this posting requirement could affect your business, contact a labor-and-employment attorney. (Hey, I’m a labor-and-employment attorney!)

While we can bicker over whether this posting requirement is necessary, all of us — on both sides of the bargaining table — can agree that the video below is hellalarious.
