Report Link New York Governor Directs Union-Friendly Policies for Certain Hotel Projects.Jackson Lewis LLP - May 07, 2009 Following a series of agency rules and legislation that gives robust advantages to unionized employers, New York’s Governor David Paterson quietly issued a new “directive” to state agencies. It requires that any state aid (in a variety of forms, such as financing, long-term leases and grants) for construction projects that include the erection of a hotel or convention center must include certain pro-labor provisions. Public work regulations which encourage union-only construction are increasingly common in New York. This directive, however, differs in that it does not affect the construction of the project; rather, it affects the employer of employees of the hotel or convention center which eventually will operate on the site. Report Link New York's Highest Court Rules Labor Unions Open to State Nuisance Lawsuit.Jackson Lewis LLP - December 08, 2008 New York State’s highest court has ruled that federal law does not shield organized labor from a private nuisance lawsuit brought under state law. Helmsley-Spears, Inc. v. Fishman, No. 164 (Nov. 24, 2008). Although the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”) has primary responsibility for interpreting the National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”) to determine what unions and employers can and cannot do during organizing campaigns, New York State can still defend its citizens from “obnoxious conduct” unlikely to be protected activity under federal labor law, a majority of the Court said.
