Bruno Katz (Partner-San Diego, CA) will present “NLRB: The Swinging Pendulum,” at Wilson Elser’s Employment & Labor Law Summit on November 7, 2023, an important update on the current state of the National Labor Relations Board and its interpretation and enforcement of the National Labor Relations Act. The current board and General Counsel have continued a steady expansion of interpretations and initiatives that favor labor organizations and even employees in non-union workplaces. He will discuss the latest developments as to what constitutes protected concerted activities, expansion of the definition of employees under the Act, new restrictions on employment-related agreements and restrictive covenants, and increased remedies and penalties for violations of the Act. Bruno will further explore expectations for 2024 and potential new decisions and issues facing employers as they navigate a Board that is more aggressive in enforcement and remedies.
