What is the Court's primary reason for leaving unfair labor practice determinations to the NLRB rather than the courts?

Question 2

Does the Court's opinion give an unlimited right to an employee to have a union representative present when the employee is being questioned?

Answer to Question 1

The primary reason behind the Court's deferral of unfair labor practice determinations to the NLRB is the Board's special competence and cumulative experience in dealing with labor-management relations.

Answer to Question 2

No. The Court's opinion does not give an unlimited right to an employee to have a union representative present. This right is limited to situations where the employee reasonably believes that the questioning will result in disciplinary action.
