The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) announced yesterday (3/19/20) that they will be suspending all representation elections, including mail-in ballots, until April 3, 2020. This action has been taken to protect the health and safety of its employees and anyone else involved in the elections process during the current COVID-19 pandemic, and because several regional offices have been closed, jeopardizing the effectiveness of the elections.
The Board will continue monitoring the situation to determine if additional extensions will be needed.
