The NLRB (National Labor Relations Board) has decided that his franchiser, CKE Holdings, owner of Carl's Jr., who has zero say in the hiring, firing or managing of his staff, could now be considered their “joint employer.” Should this standard prevail, his franchiser could be held jointly liable for any labor-law violations in restaurants that carry its brand.
The franchiser might feel the need to protect itself from liability by exerting control over his restaurant's employment decisions.
Perhaps his franchiser will now want to review every job applicant and compensation package before he can make someone an offer.
The franchiser might feel that it needs to be present in every restaurants to monitor the workplace, dictate or even administer employee training, and increase staffing as it, rather than his general managers and himself, the franchise owner, deem necessary.
Suddenly, franchisees like his might find themselves unable to control labor costs, one of the most significant aspects of running a restaurant.
Labor costs will go down, automation costs will go up.
So will unemployment.
