Most of the litigation employees initiate against their employers is the result of inadequate front-line supervision. “How can he make such an unequivocal statement?” Well, it’s based on over 35 years representing employers in labor and employment law. The majority of my clients have been medium sized employers with less than 100 employees, but many have had several hundred employees. I concede that my conclusions are strictly anecdotal and not based on any surveys or statistical analyses.
For the first 15 or so years, my practice was primarily traditional labor law, e.g., representing clients around the country in matters under the National Labor Relations Act. This entailed negotiating collective bargaining agreements, handling grievances and arbitrations under union contracts, and advising employers on avoiding union organizing efforts. As the presence of organized labor faded from the workplace, the focus of my practice shifted to employment law dealing with unrepresented employees and their individual grievances against their employers, primarily based on allegations of discrimination, wages, and hours, and working conditions under state and federal laws.
