Background checks can be helpful tools in guiding your hiring choices, as well as subsequent decisions.

But, like most aspects of business, the handling of background checks is subject to government rules.
From your hiring practices to social media policies, is your organization compliant with 2016’s changes in the regulatory landscape? Do you have policies and strategies in place that will protect your organization from legal claims and regulatory hassles and headaches? And most importantly, are you ready for the upcoming changes in overtime rules? During this Spotlight webinar, Chicago-based employment law experts, Cary Donham and Heather Jackson, partners at the law firm Taft Stettinius and Hollister, will explore recent changes in workplace laws and regulations that are transforming corporate HR functions.

Discuss the proposed overtime regulations along with strategies for addressing the new salary basis regulations.
Recognize multifaceted approaches to implementing and enforcing corporate social media policies while complying with the National Labor Relations Act.
Develop an understanding of best practices in employee pre-hire activities and the potential implications on their organization’s talent acquisition strategy and processes.
As an employee, you have the rights to file for a complaint whenever you experience unfair performance appraisals, discrimination at work, wrongful termination, etc. Keep in mind that workplace laws protect you and your rights. If your complaint involves serious issues like discrimination or illegal activity, you should have proof and make sure that everything is documented. It would be of great help if you make time to review whether your contract of employment has any provisions about how to resolve workplace disputes. Furthermore, to ensure that your complaints are reasonable, don't hesitate to ask legal assistance from workplace lawyers so that your intentions are best represented. Here is a comprehensive guideline on how to file a complaint about your employer.

workplace and protect them from unfair and
abusive managers

– With 35.8 percent of the non-agricultural work force in the
U.S. belonging to unions
• % of the work force belonging to unions has steadily
declined since 1945
– by 2009 it was 12.3 percent.
Why???

NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
How Do I Get the NLRB to Con-
duct a Secret Ballot Election?
To start the election process, a petition may also be
filed electronically through the NLRB public website:
https://apps.nlrb.gov/chargeandpetition/#/. A peti-
tion and other documents may also be filed with the
nearest NLRB office. The petition must show that it has
the support of at least 30% of employees in an appro-
priate unit. An appropriate unit is a group of workers
who are logically placed together and share common
employment interests for purposes of union represen-
tation.
After the petition is filed, the NLRB will work with the
parties to get an agreement concerning the appropriate
voting group, and the date, time, place, and other de-
tails for the election, including the need for foreign-lan-
guage notices and ballots. If the parties cannot agree
on some of these details, the NLRB will hold a hearing
and the Regional Director will set the conditions in ac-
cordance with the NLRB’s rules and decisions.
Can a Union Be Recognized
Without an NLRB Election?
In addition to NLRB-conducted elections, an employer
may voluntarily recognize a union if the union requests
recognition and offers to demonstrate majority support
by signed authorization cards or other means. These
agreements are made outside the NLRB process.
How Else Can the NLRB Help
Me?
The NLRB can answer many of your job-related ques-
tions. If you file a charge, the NLRB will fully investigate
your charge and issue a decision on the merits of your
allegations. If your job-related issues involve other
laws, an NLRB agent will refer you to the appropriate
agency or agencies. In some cases, allegations may im-
plicate more than one law, and multiple state and/or
federal agencies may be able to assist you.
How do I Find the Closest NLRB
Office or Contact the NLRB for
Help?
The NLRB has field offices located in many locations across
the country. You can contact the office closest to you by:
• Going to the NLRB website, which contains the
address and telephone number for each field
office: www.nlrb.gov.
• Using the NLRB Mobile App,
which may be downloaded for
IOS or Android. Scan this QR
code to download the App,
which contains the addresses
and phone numbers of all NLRB
field offices.
• Calling the NLRB toll-free number: 1-844-762-
NLRB (6572). You will be automatically routed
to the nearest field office. Hearing impaired
callers who wish to speak to an Agency
representative should contact the Federal
Relay Service by visiting its website at https://

Protecting
Employee
Rights
NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
2. This pamphlet is designed to provide a
general explanation to employees about
their WORKPLACE RIGHTS under the National
Labor Relations Act
What is the National Labor Relations Board?
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is an independent
federal agency of the United States Government. The NLRB
has two functions: (1) enforcing laws to ensure that workers
may freely exercise their rights under the NLRA without any
interference from employers or unions and (2) holding secret
ballot elections at which workers can choose whether they
wish to have a union represent them. These laws apply to
most non-government employers with a workplace in the
United States, including non-profits, non-union businesses,
and businesses in states with “Right to Work” laws.
What Are My Rights Under the NLRA?
Generally, workers have the right to join together to improve
their wages and working conditions, with or without a union
being involved. This means that you can:
• Talk about your working conditions with your co-
workers, the public, the media, or a union (but you
should not make statements that are deliberately
or maliciously false or engage in conduct that is ex-
tremely profane, vulgar, or disruptive to workplace
order).
• Take action with one or more of your co-workers to
improve your working conditions by, for example,
raising work-related complaints directly with your
employer or a government agency, or seeking help
from a union.
• Join a union or take steps on non-working time to
help a union become the representative of the em-
ployees at your place of work, and help a union bar-
gain for a contract to set your wages and other con-
ditions of work.
• Choose not to do any of these things.
What are Some Examples of Things Em-
ployers Cannot Do?
• Fire or demote you, make your working con-
ditions worse, or threaten to do any of these
things, because you exercise any of your rights
under the NLRA, including bringing a complaint
to the NLRB or talking to an NLRB agent about
a complaint.
• Prohibit you from talking to others about your
wages, working conditions, or a union during
non-working time, such as before or after work
or during break times.
• Prohibit you from handing out union materials
during non-working time and in non-working
areas, such as parking lots and break rooms.
• Threaten to close your workplace if workers
choose a union to represent them.
• Promise or grant promotions, pay increases or
other benefits to discourage union support.
• Prohibit you from wearing union hats, buttons,
t-shirts and pins in the workplace except under
special circumstances.
• Question you about your union support or ac-
tivities in a way that discourages you from doing
those things, or spy on or record your peaceful
union activities and gatherings.
What are Some Examples of Things
Unions Cannot Do?
• Threaten you that you will lose your job or some
other benefit if you do not support the union.
• In a workplace with a union, refuse to process a
grievance because you have criticized union of-
ficials or because you are not a union member.
• Refuse to refer you from a hiring hall for a dis-
criminatory reason.
• Encourage an employer to discriminate against
you because you have criticized union officials
or because you are not a union member.
What Can I Do If I Believe My Rights Have
Been Violated?
If you believe an employer or a union has violated your rights, you
should contact the NLRB promptly. You will be able to speak with
an NLRB agent and ask about possible violations without your em-
ployer, union, or anyone else being told about your inquiry. If you
choose, you may file an unfair labor practice charge saying that an
employer or a union has violated your rights under the NLRA, or
the rights of other workers. A copy of this charge will be provided
to the employer or the union which is the subject of the charge.
We cannot investigate allegations without a charge being filed.
You may file a file a charge by visiting a field office, by mail, by
telephone, or electronically through the NLRB public website:
https://apps.nlrb.gov/chargeandpetition/#/. If you need help, a
Board agent will help you fill out a charge form. There is no cost
to you to file an unfair labor practice charge, nor do you need a
lawyer.
When Should I Contact the NLRB?
If you believe an employer or union has violated the NLRA and
wish to file an unfair labor practice charge, you generally must file
a charge with the NLRB within six months of the violation. The
NLRA contains a six-month statute of limitations, which means
that an employer or a union cannot be held liable for conduct
that occurred more than six months before the filing of a charge.
What Happens After an Unfair Labor Prac-
tice Charge Is Filed?
A Board agent in one of the field offices will be assigned to in-
vestigate the charge. The Board agent will generally take sworn
confidential statements from the person who files the charge
and any other witnesses, and collect other relevant documents,
such as disciplinary actions, termination letters, employer poli-
cies, etc. The employer or the union will then be asked to provide
witnesses for confidential affidavits and documents to support
its defense. After considering this evidence, if the NLRB Regional
Director finds that the employer or the union has violated the
NLRA, he or she will try to settle the case before issuing a formal
complaint and going to trial. A settlement may include returning
a fired worker to his or her job, payment of lost wages, reversing
other improper actions, and/or posting a notice advising employ-
ees in the workplace of their rights.
If a trial is necessary, an NLRB attorney will present the case to an
administrative law judge and may require employees and others
to testify at the trial. The NLRB does not charge for these services.
However, if you desire to have your own lawyer, you may do so.
