NLRB Delays Notice Requirement to April 30

In our November 22, 2011 post entitled "Health Facilities Must Display Notice About Employees' Organizing Rights", we conveyed the National Labor Relations Board's ("NLRB") requirement that health facilities, among others, must post a notice advising those on payroll of their rights to negotiate as a group and join a union.  At that time, the notice was required to be posted by January 31, 2012.  However, the NLRB has further delayed the effective date of the required posting until April 30, 2012.  The NLRB agreed to this postponement because of a request by a federal court in Washington D.C. that is currently reviewing a legal challenge to this requirement.  While the implementation date may have been delayed, employers should prepare for the April 30^th deadline.  For more information on the mandatory contents of the required posting, please review our November 22 post.
