Did the Supreme Court offer direction to employers on how to deal with problems that could arise when dealing with paid union organizers as employees?

Question 2

Did the Supreme Court approve the NLRB's rationale?

Answer to Question 1

Yes. The Supreme Court pointed out that if a company is faced with unlawful activities by employee-union organizers, it may file a complaint with the Board, dismiss the individuals involved in the unlawful activity, and/or notify local law enforcement authorities.

Answer to Question 2

Yes. It pointed out that the Board's interpretation of the term employee is consistent with the purposes of the Act, including the right of employees to organize for mutual aid and without employer interference. Moreover, the Supreme Court has recognized that the Board has a degree of legal leeway when it interprets its governing statute.
