Can Employee Network Groups cause problems with a union or help a union come into our company?
Some folks raise concerns about the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and cases such as Electromation. These certainly are valid concerns, if you allow the groups to get involved in negotiating terms and conditions of employment. This is one reason having the right policies and procedures is important, to guide ENG involvement and avoid potential conflicts of interest. With effective planning and management, this should not be a concern.
