  1. To post or not to post, that is the question--about the NLRB's employee rights notice, that is. nierenberg.com/articles/2012/… #emplaw #NLRB
  2. New interactive resource from U.S. Labor Dept helps employers and employees determine FMLA eligibility. nierenberg.com/articles/?p=178 #emplaw #hr
  3. U.S. Labor Dept releases updated F.M.L.A. Advisor, which steps an employer or employee through the process: nierenberg.com/articles/?p=178
  4. Eleventh Cir. panel reconsiders Hithon v. Tyson, accepting racially pejorative connotation of "boy." nyti.ms/rEXLpK
  5. On obesity and the workplace: nytimes.com/roomfordebate/…
  6. Is your #HR dept current on genetic discrimination issues? Do you have current posters? employeerelationsinsight.com/2011/10/geneti… #emplaw
  7. @BrianDHallEsq Nice piece on smartphone-related personnel policy!
  8. @ZellnerLaw Thanks for the follow, and kudos on an exceptional professional record.
  9. Labor Board requires employers to post notice of employees' federal #labor rights, effective 11/14/2011. nierenberg.com/articles/?p=139
  10. Unknown person calls me for a free legal opinion but can't remember who referred her and refuses to give me basic contact info. Pass.
  11. National Labor Relations Board maintains substantive Twitter stream @NLRB
  12. Public wages aren’t “out of control.” Employers should never agree to onerous terms. But they shouldn’t rescind what's been agreed. Bargain.
  13. Sup.Ct. rules that terminating complaining employee's fiance was retaliation (unsurprising), and fiance himself could sue (very surprising).
  14. Here's a humorous yet factually based look at common #HR mistakes when receiving a sexual harassment complaint. http://wp.me/p29pv-2E
  15. The Facebook case is not groundbreaking, but it should be a reminder that Section 7 issues can arise in any context. Blog entry forthcoming.
  16. @RossRunkel Re. Reedy, Volokh dismisses objectivity from the element of "religious belief." He's wrong IMO and selective about citations.
  17. @RobertOttinger Ladies Night still unlawful under discrim/public accommodations. That case only dismissed claims under an inapplicable law.
