Paper Summary:

This paper relates to unfair labor practices that develop in corporations, contracts and professional athletic teams. The paper encompasses the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and why it disciplines and acts upon violating industries and associations. The composition examines five cases and one law review article. Through these cases, comparisons and dissimilarities between the disputing parties are investigated to demonstrate how the NLRB resolves these conflicts. In addition the cases are compared and contrasted to each other to explain how each individual case is unique in its unfair labor practice.

From the Paper:

"The NLRB is acronym for the National Labor Relations Board. The NLRB was formed in 1935 under the Wagner Act and it guarantees non-supervisory employees the rights to self organize, choose their own assembly, and bargain collectively. The National Labor Relations Board is an independent administrative agency authorized by the Wagner Act of 1935 to oversee the laws, to investigate and hold hearings on unfair labor practice complaints, to issue cease and desist orders against employers discovered guilty of unfair practices, to determine the composition of appropriate negotiation units, and to oversee union certifications and decertification secret ballot election."
