The Illinois State Bar Association (ISBA) Labor & Employment Section published an article by Baker Sterchi attorney Nicholas Ruble in its July 2023 newsletter. Titled With Charge against Apple, NLRB General Counsel Seeks to Expand Scope of Protected Concerted Activity, the article had previously been published on the Baker Sterchi Employment & Labor Law Blog.
In the article, Ruble examined charges by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) that Apple violated the National Labor Relations Act through its surveillance, interrogation, and treatment of employees suspected of participating in a union organizing campaign. In addition to analyzing the NLRB's decision, Ruble provided key insights for employers facing a union organizing campaign in their workplace.
With over a decade of experience in traditional labor law, Ruble represents companies in employment and labor matters, as well as general business litigation. He is Vice Chair of the Baker Sterchi Employment & Labor Practice Group, Co-Vice Chair of the Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association Labor and Employment Law Committee and serves on the steering committee for ALFA International’s Labor & Employment Practice Group.
The ISBA Labor & Employment Law newsletter is exclusively available to members of the association.
