In an opinion piece, former U.S. Congressman David Bonior -- identified at the top of the page as a labor studies professor at Wayne State University -- writes about how the National Labor Relations Board's new definition of "supervisor" could result in "depriving millions of workers the opportunity to come together to form unions." He uses the example of a nurse who oversees other nurses or technicians and could be classified as a supervisor under the new federal guidelines. Since supervisors are not eligible to join unions under labor law, that person would no longer have the benefits of union membership. "By expanding the definition of supervisor, the NLRB has provided employers with a new method of union busting," Bonior contends.
