NLRB proposes notification of rights rule

The NLRB has announced a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, for a new rule which would require employers to notify employees of their rights under the National Labor Relations Act. From the presser:
Private-sector employers (including labor organizations) whose workplaces fall under the NLRA would be required to post the employee rights notice where other workplace notices are typically posted. If an employer communicates with employees primarily by email or other electronic means, the notice would be posted electronically as well. The notice would be available from the agency’s regional offices and could also be downloaded from the NLRB website.
The 60 day comment period is open. replies are accepted electronically to www.regulations.gov, or by mail or hand-delivery to Lester Heltzer, Executive Secretary, NLRB, 1099 14th Street NW, Washington DC 20570. A fact sheet is here.
