This week, we examine what employers should anticipate as the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB)—which currently has only one active member, a Democrat, and four vacancies—moves closer to regaining a quorum and resuming full operations.

What Restoring a Quorum at the NLRB Could Mean for Employers

For the first time in more than 10 months, the NLRB may soon have three members, reestablishing a quorum and potentially impacting employers significantly.

What Employers Should Know:

• Nominees Pending: Two Republican nominees to the NLRB, as well as the NLRB’s General Counsel nominee, are awaiting U.S. Senate confirmation.
• Backlog: Restoring a quorum would allow the NLRB to address its backlog of cases and resume issuing decisions.

• Majority Requirement: Historically, a three-vote majority has been needed to overturn major precedents, which the NLRB may lack until it includes at least three Republican members.

In this episode of Employment Law This Week, Epstein Becker Green attorney Corey P. Argust discusses the implications as the NLRB moves toward full operations.
