Podcast: NLRB Ruling Raises HR Concerns for Internal Investigations
Author: David B. Weisenfeld, XpertHR Legal Editor
This XpertHR podcast features the insights of Brian Lee of Ogletree Deakins in Morristown, NJ and Daniel Schudroff of Jackson Lewis in New York on a recent NLRB ruling with big implications for employers.
The NLRB's pronouncement in the Banner Health System case indicated that an employer may violate the National Labor Relations Act if it tells employees that they must keep conversations about internal investigations confidential.
Among their insights, the speakers note the biggest mistake employers are making when it comes to internal investigations and offer up a host of recommendations for all employers (including nonunion ones) in light of this ruling.
