In Hy-Brand Industrial Contractors, 365 NLRB No. 156 (Dec. 14, 2017), the National Labor Relations Board overruled Browning-Ferris Industries, 362 NLRB No. 186 (2015), an Obama-era decision that held two entities are joint employers under the National Labor Relations Act where the second employer exercises indirect control over another entity’s employees or where the second employer has reserved a right of control, even if unexercised. In Hy-Brand, the Board reversed course, returning to prior precedent finding joint employer status only where the second entity actually has exercised control over the other entity’s employees and has done so “directly and immediately.”
