Whittier Law Review, August 2009

In this attorney-authored article, William Emanuel of Littler's Los Angeles office provides detailed analyses of the legalities associated with activities conducted by union organizers inside of hospitals: This article has two objectives: (1) to debunk the myth that union organizers have an unfettered legal right under California law and the NLRA to conduct their activities on the private property of hospitals; and (2) to enlist the support of law enforcement officers, city attorneys, and the judiciary in restoring the rule of law to California hospitals by enforcing the same laws of civilized society that apply to all other residents of California.
