By

Thepetition of the day is:

16-307

Issue:Whether arbitration agreements with individual employees that bar them from pursuing work-related claims on a collective or class basis in any forum are prohibited as an unfair labor practice under 29 U.S.C. 158(a)(1), because they limit the employees’ right under the National Labor Relations Act to engage in concerted activities in pursuit of their mutual aid or protection, 29 U.S.C. 157, and are therefore unenforceable under the savings clause of the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. 2.

 

Cases: National Labor Relations Board v. Murphy Oil USA, Inc.
