The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has postponed the implementation date of its new posting requirement to January 31, 2012.

As discussed in our August 30, 2011 Legal Alert, the NLRB has published a final rule requiring most private employers covered by the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) to post a Notice of Employee Rights explaining employees' rights under the Act. The posting requirement applies to employers covered by the Act, regardless of whether the workplace is unionized or union-free. The rule was published in the Federal Register on August 30, 2011, and was scheduled to take effect November 14, 2011. The notice requirement does not apply to employers who are not covered by the NLRA, including, among others, any person subject to the Railway Labor Act, as well as entities over whom the Board has been found not to have jurisdiction or over which the Board has chosen not to assert jurisdiction.
