The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is seeking to redefine the joint-employer standard, significantly expanding the scope of what constitutes joint employment, which could cloud the employment status of many workers and significantly extend employers’ liability. AAHOA has engaged with the Small Business Administration, numerous coalitions, and our industry partners on the issue. Earlier this week, AAHOA submitted a formal comment on the joint-employer ruling, highlighting the deficiencies of the proposed ruling.
Today, CDW, along with 69 other employer organizations, filed comments opposing the NLRB’s joint employer proposed rule. AAHOA was a signator in the comments that show the rule violates federal law, Congressional intent, and court precedent and will undermine collective bargaining, destabilize labor relations, and jeopardize existing economic relationships and future entrepreneurial opportunities.
The statement on the comments can be viewed here.
