Report Link NLRB Strikes Down Mandatory Arbitration Policy.Vedder Price - December 08, 2006 In our April 2006 edition (Vol. 26, No. 2), we
cautioned employers that agreements to arbitrate
employment disputes may be invalid if they make
arbitration prohibitively expensive for an employee.
Now, employers have another reason to be concerned
about the enforceability of such agreements. A
divided National Labor Relations Board has ruled that
mandatory employment arbitration policies applicable
to nonunion employees must expressly exclude unfair
labor practice charges which may be fi led with the Board
under the National Labor Relations Act. U-Haul Co.
of California, 347 NLRB No. 34 (2006). The Board’s
decision has been appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia, which has scheduled oral
arguments this month.
