Labor Relations
Foulston Siefkin attorneys have considerable experience in representing and advising public and private employers in all phases of labor relations. We have assisted in responding to union organization efforts on behalf of a diverse group of clients and have negotiated numerous collective bargaining agreements involving units as large as 5,000 and as small as five.
Union Avoidance
Our lawyers advise union-free employers regarding effective responses to union organizing campaigns and are experienced in preparing and presenting evidence and legal arguments before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and the federal courts arising out of union organizing efforts. Foulston Siefkin provides training, guidance, and counseling regarding the National Labor Relations Act and the Railway Labor Act and union representational proceedings and elections.
Union avoidance can be achieved only through diligence along with attention to the desires and sentiments of employees. Foulston Siefkin can assist employers periodically audit their work force to determine whether management's relationship with its employees remains strong or whether problems exist that may make the employees receptive to union organizing. We counsel employers regarding the development of lawful positive employment practices and employee relations programs designed to foster employee support for union-free status. We assist in developing an atmosphere which makes unions unnecessary which may lead to NLRB decertification proceedings.
Union Collective Bargaining
The collective bargaining process begins when the majority of workers in an appropriate bargaining unit vote to be represented by a specific union. The National Labor Relations Board then certifies the union. At this point, the management of the organization must recognize the union as the collective bargaining agent for all the employees in the bargaining unit. Once this part of the process is completed, collective bargaining can begin. We assist clients in developing a labor strategy to accomplish the outcomes desired from the collective bargaining process. Foulston Siefkin attorneys counsel unionized employers before, during and after bargaining sessions on legal questions, collective bargaining strategy, and tactics; drafting and analyzing proposals; and responding to union information requests. Our attorneys have served as the chief spokespersons in labor negotiations covering a cross-section of public and private employers. Our experience includes strike preparation, managing labor relations through the course of a strike, hiring replacements, negotiating concession contracts, negotiating a first contract, as a successor employer, and negotiating as part of a workforce shutdown. Foulston Siefkin attorneys then advise employers concerning the administration of the collective bargaining agreements and represent our clients in litigation to enforce collective bargaining agreements.
Union Arbitration
Fouslton Siefkin attorneys have handled many arbitration cases concerning the interpretation of collective bargaining agreements. Arbitration resolves conflicts of interpretation over the established terms and conditions of employment, for example, the wage rate, working hours, and justification for employee termination. In labor relations, these terms and conditions are negotiated through collective bargaining, and agreements are formalized in collective bargaining agreements or union contracts. Many matters can be resolved through negotiation and mediation. Others require resolution before an independent arbitrator. Our cost-effective representation during arbitration proceedings is aided by our substantial courtroom experience helping to achieve favorable outcomes for our clients.
Union Grievances
An employee may be entitled by a collective bargaining agreement to seek relief through a particular series of steps called a grievance procedure. In an unionized organization, a grievance is a formal complaint against the employer, in written format, filed by a union on behalf of a member of the local union. It is typically understood as any difference arising out of the interpretation, application, administration or alleged violation of the collective bargaining agreement that is in effect at the place of employment but it can also concern violations of common law, such as workplace safety regulations or a human rights code. Our attorneys assists companies in responding to contractual grievances and representing them in proceedings.

Debate Continues on Whether Title VII Prohibits Discrimination Based on Sexual Orientation (Authored by: J. Steven Massoni, 04/05/2017)
After over a year of waiting and wondering, the Department of Labor finally issued its proposed amendments to the white-collar exemptions under the Fair Labor Standards Act. These are often referred to as the salaried exemptions because of the threshold requirement that the employee be paid on a salary basis at a minimum salary level. As you may recall, the impetus for these changes was direction from President Obama that the exemptions were too many employees were being treated as exempt. In other words, the stated goal of the proposed changes was to make sure that more employees will become non-exempt and thus entitled to overtime.
