Document Information

Type: Federal register notice concerning nlrb rulemaking authority
File Size: 4.07 MB
Summary

This document from the Federal Register discusses the National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB) statutory authority to issue a rule requiring employers to post notices of employee rights under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). The Board refutes arguments that a high standard of "necessity" or "grave and immediate danger" is required, citing legal precedents like Chevron and AHA to justify its rulemaking power. The text concludes that the notice-posting rule is a legitimate exercise of authority because effective enforcement of the NLRA depends on employees being aware of their rights.
