Understanding Labor Law

The Understanding treatise examines the multifaceted and complex area of private-sector labor law. The treatise focuses on private sector labor relationships, dealing primarily with the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, and its interpretation and application by federal courts and the National Labor Relations Board. Organized in a format consistent with the organization of most labor law courses and serving as a useful reference for practitioners, it also addresses exceptions to employment-at-will and international labor law. Each chapter concludes with reader-friendly "Chapter Highlight," summarizing the major doctrines discussed in the chapter.
