It explains how a recent decision may mean that any mandatory arbitration agreements that could be interpreted as preventing employees from filing charges with the National Labor Relations Board are invalid, even if they include general disclaimer language. To quote from this alert’s conclusion, “You should promptly review any arbitration agreements you maintain to determine whether they include broad language that might be read as precluding employees from filing charges with the Board.”
