Abstract

On November 2, 2001, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia upheld the National Labor Relations Board's decision to extend the right to engage in concerted activities for the purpose of mutual aid or protection in the workplace to nonunionized employees. This right, until now enjoyed only by unionized employees, guarantees that employees may request union or coworker representation at investigatory interviews likely to result in disciplinary action. However, as the theory on which this decision rests finds translation into practice, several significant issues have come to the fore for timely discussion.
