Labor Law - LAW 6371


Credits Hours: 3

This course will examine federal labor law governing private employers and the rights of private sector employees to engage in collective action in the workplace. Topics covered will include: union organizing; the establishment of the collective bargaining relationship; primary and secondary economic pressures such as strikes, pickets and boycotts; the administration of collective bargaining agreements and labor arbitration. We will begin by reviewing the evolution of federal labor relations law, including the Wagner Act, the Taft -Hartley Act, the Landrum Griffin Act and cases construing them from federal courts and the National Labor Relations Board. We will also track breaking news and journal articles covering the post pandemic reemergence of union organizing activities, company responses and unfair labor practice charges.
