NYU Labor Center Webinar: Sectoral Bargaining in the US?: California's Fast Food Worker Law

4:00–5:15 p.m.

This is a virtual event

This event has passed.

California has passed a new law that calls for sectoral bargaining among fast food workers and employers. The approach of multiple employers negotiating for industry-wide terms with labor is more prevalent in Europe and provides a means to secure labor gains across an industry. What are the benefits and challenges of such an approach for the parties involved? Is Taft-Hartley preemption likely to be a problem? Does this approach introduce government imposition of terms through the guise of collective bargaining? Is that necessarily a bad thing for low-wage labor markets?

This event is applying for NYS CLE.
