Monday 06/24/2024 03:30 PM - 04:30 PM   Add to calendar

Competencies: Business (Behavioral), Interpersonal (Behavioral), Leadership (Behavioral) | Intended Audience: Mid-Level
Workplace Application:
Attendees will learn how to keep the NLRB from meddling in Title VII matters, the key points of overlap and tension between the NLRA, Title VII, and other Employment Laws, and best practices for handling workplace issues that implicate the NLRA and Title VII. Attendees will also walk away with key tips and a plan for responding to an unfair labor practice charge before the NLRB. 

The NLRB has broadened the scope of the NLRA's protection of conduct that may otherwise violate Title VII and similar state statutes and has also entered memorandums of understanding with various agencies, increasing inter-agency scrutiny. Unfair labor practice charges may accompany charges and/or complaints to other federal and state agencies. Whether you are managing a union or non-union workforce, you will identify hot spots between the NLRA and different Employment Laws

Learning Objectives:

  • Identifying common issues under the NLRA, Title VII and other employment laws and the overlap between them.
  • Best practices to employ for managing workplace issues that implicate the NLRA, Title VII and other employment laws.
  • Gain an understanding of an unfair labor practice charge, including the criteria for who can file and effective strategies for responding to the NLRB when such a charge is filed.
