the NLRA when they implement rules
banning employees from discussing
pending workplace investigations
"where by their terms the rules apply for
the duration of any investigation."
The decision overrules the 2015 Obama
board decision in Banner Health System
and clarifies its 2017 Boeing case that
created three categories of rules for
determining the legality of workplace
investigations under the NLRA.
After Banner Health System,
employers had to decide whether to
compromise workplace investigations
by not requiring confidentiality or to
violate the NLRA. Additionally, the
NLRB's prior position conflicted with
the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission's position that employers
should keep harassment complaints
confidential to the greatest extent
possible. Employers now may require
confidentiality during investigations
without violating the NLRA, so long
as confidentiality is limited to open
investigations. Employers can revise
their confidentiality and workplace
investigation policies to take advantage of the Apogee decision.
MCDONALD'S SETTLEMENT
On Dec. 12, the NLRB instructed
one of its administrative law judges
to approve a settlement between
McDonald's Corp. franchisees and
their employees. The workers alleged
that McDonald's Corp. was a joint
employer with its franchisees and was
liable for the franchisees' labor violations. The judge previously rejected the
proposed settlement, expressing concerns with the form of the settlement,
its enforceability, the level of resources
already expended in the case and the
likelihood of future litigation.
The NLRB reversed the judge, noting
its longstanding policy to encourage
settlements. The decision continues
the efforts of the Trump NLRB to roll
back efforts to make it easier to find
joint employers. The resolution of the
McDonald's case may signal that a
final rule on the NLRB's jointemployer standard may be imminent.
As always, consult your company's
counsel to determine how these
new rules and decisions affect your
operations.
