Hi Iris: From what I know, the Employee Free Choice Act will also provide for mediation and arbitration during first-contract disputes. Under the Act, either employers or employees may request mediation of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Ser…

Hi Iris: We have revised our leave policies to account for a pandemic situation, to provide for leave to care for kids during school closings and to utilize temporary telecommuting arrangements under pandemic conditions. Our policies are worded ver…
