The Franchise Memorandum

Employee Free Choice Act Introduced in Congress

The union-backed and much-talked-about Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) was introduced in Congress on March 10, 2009. The legislative fight over the EFCA will begin soon. In the meantime, franchisors and other employers should ensure that they are familiar with the requirements and ramifications of the new law, that they contact their representatives in Congress to express their views, and that they begin taking lawful steps to prevent unionization, which will help whether or not the EFCA becomes law.
