Labor Law Cases (e.g., NLRB v. J. Weingarten, Inc.)

Labor law cases, such as NLRB v. J. Weingarten, Inc., focus on workers' rights regarding union representation and fair treatment at the workplace. In this case, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ruled that employees have the right to request a union representative during interviews that could lead to disciplinary action. This decision reinforced the idea that employees should be able to seek support and ensure their rights are protected when facing potential employer actions. Such cases help define the balance between employer authority and employee rights in the labor environment.
