by Practical Law Labor & EmploymentPractical Law gratefully acknowledges the assistance of John Doran and Ted Scott, formerly of Littler Mendelson, P.C.
A Chart setting out various routine subjects often raised in collective bargaining negotiations that the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and the US Supreme Court have assigned to three categories. Under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), the category to which a subject is assigned (mandatory, permissive, or illegal) determines what position a party may take, and what obligations a party has, in bargaining about the subject.
