As predicted, the new NLRB rights poster (discussed here) is postponed again - this time until April 2012. Announcement here. H/T Ross Runkel.
For the bad news, the Board just finalized revisions to election rules. (Announcement is here). Here is a redline of the changes to the election procedures. The new rules severely curtail pre-election hearings on such matters as whether the voting unit is appropriate and who is eligible to vote. Little things like that. As a result, elections will occur much more quickly after a petition is filed, and there will be shorter "campaign" periods.
Look for the Union label! There probably will be a few more of them starting next year!
