The National Labor Relations Board has repealed a 2023 rule regarding joint employers. The standard now considers a company a joint employer if it has direct and immediate control over conditions including hiring, supervision, and pay. Joint employers are obligated to engage in collective bargaining and can be held liable for interfering in union organizing. It is expected that this move will face legal challenges, as the NLRB did not issue a proposed rule and solicit public comments before implementation.
