So if a company is responsible as a co-employer are they not also then responsible for providing health care under the Obamacare stuff??

[Covenantor]

Well, certainly they’ll get hit but the temp worker agencies aren’t as big as the construction industry chain.

If I read it correctly the NLRB has changed the fundamentals of contract law, all part of Obama/Jarret masterplan of destruction.

The construction chain would extend to manufacturer and fabricators of every element/component involved in General Construction.

Also, Bimbo bread and their drivers, Just about ALL trucking companies are contract labor to a supplier/manufacturer.

Does this mean that Miller Brewing is now responsible for the contract driver that delivers their product to the distributor? Is the local 7-eleven now responsible for the labor relations between the distributor and their drivers?

This is an ugly mess that simply is WITHOUT REASON!! I can only control those whom I directly hire, fire, discipline, and schedule. Everything else is OUT OF MY CONTROL!

[Buckeye McFrog]

The way I read it this creates a huge disincentive for employers to use contract labor. If you are ultimately going to be held responsible you might as well directly employ them and cut out the middle man.

Which makes things far, far easier for.....UNION ORGANIZERS!

You knew that had to be the point of this, didn’t you?

Obammy appointed board ruled against aka skrews American businesses

Film and wailing at 11..

On Al Jazeeera.

Oh shoot. I dozed off. Huh?

The most influential constituents in politics obviously love government employee unions, so let them deal with private sector unions, too.

FedEx Ground & Freight are, not Express.

Freight does contract out some routes but I believe most of their drivers are company.

if a company is responsible as a co-employer are they not also then responsible for providing health care under the Obamacare stuff??

And where is this ridiculous 30 hr work week gonna fit in this disaster?

And the huge fines for companies who go ahead and provide employee health insurance?

Cloward-Piven Here we come!

Dems BETTER take the WH and Congress. People are gonna HATE liberals for all the damage they're doing.
