The rule — announced late last month by the National Labor Relations Board –- sets new standards for determining when two companies should be considered “joint employers” under the National Labor Relations Act.
It sounds wonky. But essentially, the rule could widen the number of companies that must participate in labor negotiations alongside their franchisees or independent contractors. For example, it might require Burger King to bargain with workers even though most of its U.S. restaurants are owned by franchisees. Or it could require Amazon to negotiate with delivery drivers who are employed by independent contractors.
When the polls are in churches and nursing homes but it’s not a national holiday to vote it’s pretty easy to see where that leads. It’s not like billionaires bribe politicians for certain outcomes or anything. But yeah these fckin lazy people not voting Jfc amirite
