Collective Bargaining, Public Policy, And The National Labor Relations Act Of 1947, Donald H. Wollett Aug 1948

Collective Bargaining, Public Policy, And The National Labor Relations Act Of 1947, Donald H. Wollett

Washington Law Review

The underlying thesis of this critique is the notion that we are irrevocably committed to a federal labor policy of encouraging the establishment and maintenance of collective bargaining relationships. The economic wisdom of collective bargaining as a policy is somewhat beyond the scope of this discussion, yet some observations seem appropriate.

Labor Law - "Channeling" The Duty To Bargain - Effect Of Violation Of "No-Strike" Clause In Existing Agreement, John F. Buchman S.Ed. May 1948

Labor Law - "Channeling" The Duty To Bargain - Effect Of Violation Of "No-Strike" Clause In Existing Agreement, John F. Buchman S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

Employer and union had an existing collective agreement which provided detailed procedures for adjusting grievances, including arbitration as the final step, and contained a no-strike clause. Disputes arose concerning action taken by the employer affecting working schedules, overtime work, and other conditions of employment without consulting the union; and disciplinary measures were taken against certain employees in pursuance of the new working rules. The union finally called a strike, without filing grievances according to the contract procedure on the disputes which were the immediate causes of the strike. The employer discontinued hearings on two pending grievances and refused to negotiate …


The Employment Security Program (With Special Reference To Tennessee Unemployment Insurance), E.J. Eberling Apr 1948

The Employment Security Program (With Special Reference To Tennessee Unemployment Insurance), E.J. Eberling

Vanderbilt Law Review

Employment security was one of the major programs for which provision was made in the Social Security Act of 1935. Under its terms a tax program was instituted which encouraged the states to enact unemployment insurance laws and expand their employment services. The Act imposed a federal tax on the payrolls of subject employers against which such employers were permitted to offset the major part of the taxes which they paid under state unemployment insurance laws. Since employers in states which did not enact appropriate insurance laws were liable for the full federal tax, the states acted speedily to set …

Vested Rights And The Portal-To-Portal Act, Ray A. Brown Apr 1948

Vested Rights And The Portal-To-Portal Act, Ray A. Brown

Michigan Law Review

The Portal-to-Portal Act of 1947 attempts, by new and retroactive definitions of what constitutes working time of an employee under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, to deprive employees of claims under that earlier act, to which the Supreme Court of the United States has held they were entitled. This article will discuss whether this can be done under the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment.

The Taft-Hartley Act And State Jurisdiction Over Labor Relations, Russell A. Smith Mar 1948

The Taft-Hartley Act And State Jurisdiction Over Labor Relations, Russell A. Smith

Michigan Law Review

Of the many problems arising out of the Taft-Hartley Act, not the least perplexing is the determination of its impact upon state jurisdiction over labor relations. The importance of the question is obvious, and is illustrated by Judge Shepard's reaction. Administrators of state labor relations acts and state courts, like the California court, must determine what position to take with respect to their jurisdiction. Employers and unions must make a like determination, and must also come to some conclusion as to the applicability of state law as reflected in other statutes and in judicial decisions. Those charged with the administration …

Labor Law-Torts-Liability Of Labor Union For Inducing Breach Of Contract, Ira M. Price, Ii S.Ed. Jan 1948

Labor Law-Torts-Liability Of Labor Union For Inducing Breach Of Contract, Ira M. Price, Ii S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

During the past fifteen years the law as a whole has moved rapidly in the direction of favoring union activity. A labor policy expressed in numerous federal and state laws and important judicial decisions has generally recognized and protected in the courts the workers' right to be free from employer interference, to strike, to engage in peaceful picketing, and to conduct primary boycotts. Within this liberalizing judicial concept of the rights of labor, the present status of the action against labor unions for inducing breach of contract presents an interesting study of the tenacity of an early common law theory …


Labor Law-Constitutionality Of Statutes Prohibiting "Hot Goods" And "Secondary" Boycotts, Jerry S. Mccroskey Jan 1948

Labor Law-Constitutionality Of Statutes Prohibiting "Hot Goods" And "Secondary" Boycotts, Jerry S. Mccroskey

Michigan Law Review

In a contempt action against the business agent of an A.F.L. furniture and van workers local for violation of an injunction based on statutes prohibiting "hot goods" and "secondary" boycotts, held, petitioner discharged; the statutes are violative of the Fourteenth Amendment of the federal Constitution in prohibiting peaceful picketing or other publication of the facts concerning a labor dispute in pursuance of an "agreement or combination to cause" any employee to stop handling certain goods or to put pressure on his employer to do so. ln re Blaney, (Cal.1947) 184P. (2d) 892.

Comment On The Taft-Hartley Act, Title Iii, Thomas F. Broden Jan 1948

Comment On The Taft-Hartley Act, Title Iii, Thomas F. Broden

Journal Articles

A fair and just discussion of the Taft-Hartley Act is impossible without a fair determination of the purpose for which it was enacted. The Act itself explains that its purpose is to protect by legal procedures the rights of employees, employers, and the public concerning labor disputes affecting commerce. But to understand fully the basic purpose for this or another law applicable to labor-management relations, we must examine the justification for government activity in the economic sphere.


Principal And Agent-Compensation Of Unfaithful Agent, Edwin M. Deal S.Ed. Nov 1947

Principal And Agent-Compensation Of Unfaithful Agent, Edwin M. Deal S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff, manager of defendant's mechanical division under a contract requiring him to devote all his efforts to this employment and providing that he would share the profits and losses of the division equally with defendant as his only compensation, sued to recover a balance of $42,991.90 in his favor after his discharge by defendant. The contract provided that on "any termination" of plaintiff's employment his account should be adjusted and any credit balance paid him, but defendant contended that plaintiff had forfeited his right to compensation by secretly engaging in a partnership in competition with defendant. The trial court found …

Labor Law-Fair Labor Standards Act-Determination Of "Regular Rate" For Computation Of Overtime Pay, John A. Huston S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

Previous to the enactment of the Fair Labor Standards Act, respondent had paid its employees monthly salaries for work schedules which fluctuated from week to week according to the demands of business. After the effective date of the act, respondent sought to comply with section 7 (a), requiring the payment of one. and one half times the "regular rate" of compensation for hours worked above the statutory maximum, by adopting new employment contracts which guaranteed weekly salaries equivalent to the former compensation and fixed an hourly rate which, multiplied by the maximum hours permitted by the act and by one …
