About NLRB

Established in 1935, the National Labor Relations Board is an independent federal agency that protects employees, employers, and unions from unfair labor practices and protects the right of private sector employees to join together, with or without a union, to improve wages, benefits and working conditions. The NLRB conducts hundreds of workplace elections and investigates thousands of unfair labor practice charges each year. Region 5 serves areas in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia from its Regional Office in Baltimore and its Resident Office in the District of Columbia.

DC Circuit enforces Board order; Daycon Products must reinstate former strikers

The United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on Tuesday enforced the National Labor Relations Board’s order finding that a Maryland janitorial supply company prematurely declared impasse in negotiations with its employees’ union and unlawfully failed to reinstate workers after they went on strike to protest that declaration.

NLRB Judge finds Daycon Products violated labor laws; must reinstate workers and resume bargaining with union

 
An NLRB Administrative Law Judge has issued a decision finding that a Maryland manufacturer of janitorial products violated federal labor laws by breaking off negotiations with its employees’ union, and by refusing to reinstate striking workers when they offered to return.
