Employment Law Compliance Plan
MEMORANDUM

TO: Traci Goldeman
FROM: Rafeek Mohamed
DATE: June 28, 20143
SUBJECT: Employment Laws

As per your request, I will prepare an employment law compliance plan for a Mr. Bradley Stonefield of Landslide Limousines. From my understanding, Mr. Stonefield is planning to open a limousine service company in Austin Texas.

Under the NLRA, employees can organize (join a union) and bargain collectively with their employer, or to refrain from such activity. Employers and unions have rights under the act as well. Noncompliance issues of the NLRA is enforced by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).  Employers with more than one employee is subject to NLRA. Some industries that exempted under the NLRA are railroads, airlines, agriculture and government.
