S.J.Res. 49, Resolution of Disapproval on Joint Employer Rule

April 10, 2024 | S.J.Res. 49

The AFL-CIO opposed the vote to overturn the National Labor Relations Board's 2023 Joint Employer Rule. The rule restores a reasonable standard recognizing entities with control over working conditions as joint employers, ensuring compliance with the National Labor Relations Act and protecting workers’ rights to collective bargaining. Overriding the veto would revert to a restrictive Trump-era standard, creating uncertainty and undermining workers' rights without substantiated threats to business models like franchising or staffing services.
