In another example of unions trying to push the boundaries of recent NLRB restrictions on employment policies, the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace, Local 2001 (“Union”) recently challenged Boeing’s decade-old Code of Conduct. In a refreshing display of common sense, the NLRB General Counsel’s Office rejected that challenge, after concluding, in its Advice Memorandum, that Boeing’s Code of Conduct (contained in its Ethical Guidelines) did not violate the NLRA because employees were unlikely to read the Code of Conduct to restrict NLRA-protected concerted activities.
