NLRB Goodwill GA Decision 14c 08/03/07
  The National Labor Relations Board confirms the Acting Regional Director’s decision that client/consumer workers with disabilities paid special commensurate wages under a Fair Labor Standards Act Section 14(c) Special Minimum Wage Certificate on a federal janitorial contract are “employees” under the National Labor Relations Act, NLRA. The workers were working on a Service Contract Act, SCA, contract under the JWOD Act. Under the NLRA, the workers have all the rights as other employees including but not limited to concerted activity protection, the right to petition for an election to determine if the workers want representation by a union, the right to organize, the right to join a union and the right to have representation during an “investigative interview” that may result in disciplinary action. The decision references similar cases with client/consumer workers. (See the discussion of the implications of the decision on the last page.)
