So they don’t understand franchise law?
Is there anything this administration won’t do to destroy the economy?
“Joint Employers” - no such thing. The employees are working ONLY for the franchisees. Yes, the franchisees have to comply with McD’s rules and regs, but that doesn’t mean that they are joint employers. There are 2 separate entities, only one of which makes the hiring, firing and promotion decisions, and which pays wages and payroll taxes, and that isn’t McD’s.
This ought to be tossed out of court very quickly. I’d like to see the NRLB forced to pay the legal fees of both McD’s and the franchisees brought into the case.
Probably close to half of McD franchisees are barely getting by. High initial investment, and heavy overhead.
” The cases will now go before administrative law judges in Manhattan, Chicago and Los Angeles,”

You've got to get up pretty early in the morning to put one over on McBoner. </sarcasm>
January 2017 cannot come fast enough. We need the adults to take over.
Defund the NLRB. In 2009 President Cruz can dismantle it brick by brick, commie by commie.
McD to NLRB.
“You have no jurisdiction here! Now leave us alone or we’ll sue for harassment.”
” “McDonald’s is disappointed with the board’s decision to overreach and move forward with these charges,” the company said in a statement.
“These allegations are driven in large part by a two-year, union-financed campaign that has targeted the McDonald’s brand and impacted McDonald’s restaurants,” it added. “
SEIU funded the national MCD’s protests.
The rule of law does not matter at all to the thug in our White House. He makes stuff up on his own, regardless of what the laws actually say. Obama is disgusting.
The "deep pockets" theory of jurisprudence.
FEDEX basically started doing the same thing.
I am/was an independent contractor working for a company that did a lot of FEDEX Same Day & Overnights.. Same Day weren’t advertised much because they were ‘expensive’..definitely when compared to the basic low rate they used.
I got compensated well AFTER the Company I leased to got compensated well and Naturally, FedEx had to make ‘something’.
They started their own IC wing and the MGR of the local branch ‘invited’ me to interview etc... I got to the point where they told me that I would have to wear THEIR UNIFORM, buy my own truck (probably would have had some help if needed) which had to be their color (White - They were going to try and give me a ‘waiver’ seeing as I had just bought a brand new RED F250 Van.)
Anyway, I would be supplying the truck with their logo, labor(me), wearing their uniform, Insurance- vehicle and personal, AND I knew from my IC earlier days if one represented himself as an FEDEX employee, one could get canned...(actually made sense, no uniform, unmarked truck etc) but here I would virtually be an Employee with NO company benefits whatsoever. Few years back a bunch of people sued over this (I had figured IRS would never let them get away with it) BUT I also didn’t figure the ‘strikers’ had a chance because FEDEX spelled out EXACTLY what they were doing and what they expected of the individual. The truck issue came up real early and I was basically ‘finished’ then....
You want me to drive your truck, wear your uniform, I will be on YOUR payroll PERIOD. Of course, that is just me...HA..
So, if a mechanic at a G.M. dealership has to follow G.M. repair techniques which he learned at a G.M. training center, but works for a wholly owned dealership....he somehow becomes a partial employee of The G.M. Corporation????....Please
I think this is a great ruling, Now anybody that has been wronged by some scumbag LAWYER can now SUE the BAR Association for Damages, Since Lawyers are required to follow their franchisor rules, they are now LIABLE for the Actions of ALL LAWYERS in their organization.
