The Coalition for a Democratic Workplace (CDW), of which NRMCA is an active member, has taken action on a number of significant labor policy issues. Last week, CDW sent a letter to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) objecting to Members Prouty and Wilcox participating in cases involving their former employer (the SEIU) and legal proceedings or rulemakings on the joint-employer standard. CDW also submitted an amicus brief in a pending NLRB case relating to make-whole remedies for employees and plans to file amicus briefs in cases relating to micro-unions, independent contractor status and employer work rules.
The Biden Administration and a Democrat-controlled NLRB are reviving Obama-era labor policies that will negatively impact the ready mixed concrete industry. Last year, NRMCA led an industry grassroots effort to defeat the PRO Act, legislation that would effectively stack the deck against employers and inhibit their opportunity to respond to an organizing drive.
