  2. This week, we’re showcasing the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) General Counsel’s memo on non-disparagement and confidentiality provisions in severance agreements, Illinois’ new law permitting Illinois employees to take paid leave “for any reason,” and New Jersey's upcoming implementation of the “Temporary Workers' Bill of Rights.”

    NLRB Issues Memo on Severance Agreement Restrictions

    Last Wednesday, NLRB General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo issued a memo outlining her views on the implications and meaning of the McLaren Macomb decision. In McLaren Macomb, the NLRB held that it is unlawful to include broad non-disparagement and confidentiality provisions in severance agreements.
    Check out more on the memo: workforcebulletin.com/2023/03/24/nlrb-gcs-mclaren-macomb-memo-provides-murky-and-ominous-guidance-on-boards-prohibitions-on-non-disparagement-and-non-disclosure-provisions/

    Illinois Rolls Out Paid Leave for Any Reason

    Starting January 1, 2024, employers will be required to permit their Illinois employees to take paid leave “for any reason.” The Illinois Paid Leave for All Workers Act covers private employers with one or more employees who work in Illinois, as well as most state and local government employers, unless they are already subject to a local paid leave ordinance.

    New Jersey Prepares for Temporary Workers' Bill of Rights

    New Jersey will soon implement historic new legislation protecting temporary workers. The “Temporary Workers' Bill of Rights” will apply to at least 130,000 employees in the state. Find out more: ebglaw.com/insights/new-jersey-enacts-a-temporary-workers-bill-of-rights/

  5. This week, we're highlighting how the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is cracking down on confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions in severance agreements, the U.S. Supreme Court has opened overtime to high-earning daily-rate workers, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is allowing mandatory arbitration in California despite state law.

    NLRB Cracks Down on Confidentiality and Non-Disparagement Provisions in Severance Agreements

    The NLRB held in McLaren Macomb that it is an unfair labor practice for employers to include non-disparagement and confidentiality provisions in severance agreements.

    Supreme Court Opens Overtime to Highly Compensated Employees

    The high court has ruled that a daily-rate worker earning over $200,000 a year is entitled to overtime because he does not meet the requirements for an overtime exemption under the Fair Labor Standards Act.

    Ninth Circuit Keeps Mandatory Arbitration Alive in California

    The Ninth Circuit held that AB 51, which made it illegal for California employers to require employees to sign arbitration agreements, is preempted by the Federal Arbitration Act.
