Abstract

The National Labor Relations Act is oftentimes not considered by employers unless a union is on the scene. The “labor” law applies to labor, or so the mistaken belief goes. Section 7 of the Act provides, in deceptive simplicity, “Employees shall have the right to self‐organization, to form, join, or assist labor organizations, to bargain collectively through representatives of their own choosing, and to engage in other concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection, and shall also have the right to refrain from any or all of such activities….” The focus of the Act is on employees, not unions per se.
