The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is poised for a major shift following recent changes under the Trump administration. With two open seats on the board, President Trump is expected to appoint Republican members, reshaping the NLRB’s political landscape and reversing key Biden-era labor policies.

In an article for HR Daily Advisor, we outline how these changes could impact employers. The administration’s early moves—such as firing NLRB General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo and board member Gwynne Wilcox—signal a pro-business agenda that will likely roll back pro-union decisions from the past four years.

Key rulings on captive-audience meetings, bargaining orders, and severance agreements are expected to be overturned, alongside broader shifts in enforcement priorities. The new NLRB leadership is also likely to challenge federal court rulings that expanded the board’s power in recent years.

As these changes unfold, employers should stay informed about evolving labor policies and their potential impact on workplace regulations.

The full article, “Trump Administration’s Impact on the NLRB,” is available on HR Daily Advisor.
