Description:
Join PilieroMazza’s Labor & Employment Group for this introductory webinar, the first in a 3-part series, which provides employers with a clear, practical overview of the legal landscape surrounding employee organizing efforts. Participants will learn what constitutes protected activity, how to respond lawfully during an organizing campaign, and what obligations arise if employees choose union representation. This webinar walks through each stage—before, during, and after organizing—highlighting common pitfalls, compliance requirements, and strategies for maintaining positive employee relations while reducing legal risk.
Learning objectives:
- Understand employees’ rights to organize and engage in protected concerted activity under U.S. labor law.
- Identify what employers can and cannot say or do during an organizing campaign.
- Recognize early signs of organizing activity and prepare compliant response strategies.
- Explain employer obligations and best practices after a union is elected, including bargaining requirements.
- Avoid common legal pitfalls that can lead to unfair labor practice charges and reputational risk.
