As reported last week, legislation has been introduced that would overturn the National Labor Relation Board’s (NLRB) recent joint employer rule.  GCCA and industry allies have responded to the introduction of the legislation by  sending a letter to Members of Congress strongly supporting the CRA resolution, emphasizing it’s importance to support and protect workers and small businesses, and ensure stability and continuity of long-standing precedent in times of economic uncertainty.  The new NLRB rule reverses Trump-era policies and establishes that an entity may be considered a joint employer if said entity codetermines one or more of the employees’ essential terms and conditions of employment.  The new rule is facing criticism for being out of touch with American businesses, workers, and communities, by stifling job creation through higher operational costs.
