When does an on-site employee protest fall outside the National Labor Relations Act’s protections?

A recent NLRB Division of Advice memo examined a demonstration aimed at changing Microsoft’s business relationships. The memo concluded that the protest’s objectives lacked a sufficient connection to employees’ working conditions.

For California employers, the analysis does not end there. State law also protects employee political activity. In our latest blog, Tashayla “Shay” Billington explains the memo and why employers should document and consistently apply workplace rules when responding to a protest.

California employers just got more time—but not a free pass.

AB 1697 would push enforcement of California’s “TRAP” law to January 1, 2027, while expanding and clarifying exceptions for certain bonuses, advanced PTO, grant-funded incentives, and financial-services arrangements.

Employers should use the extra time to review repayment provisions, clawbacks, and related agreements before the new deadline.
