In a significant win for union advocates, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit upheld a National Labor Relations Board ruling that a New Jersey-based rehabilitation and skilled nursing facility violated federal labor law by withholding improved healthcare benefits from 200 employees during a union election. The Union was represented in the litigation by Gladstein, Reif & Meginniss, LLP.
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) had previously ruled against Woodcrest, and the appeals court upheld that ruling.
