Summary

This document is a page from the Federal Register discussing the National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB) statutory authority to implement a rule requiring employers to post a notice of employee rights under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). The text argues that this rule is necessary to fill a statutory gap, especially as union density has declined, and falls within the Board's broad rulemaking authority under Section 6 of the NLRA. It refutes arguments that the Board's authority is limited by Sections 9 and 10 to actions taken only after a petition or charge has been filed.

"the Board is taking a modest step that is "necessary to carry out the provisions" of the Act, 29 U.S.C. 156, and that also fills a statutory gap left by Congress in the NLRA."
