The NLRB public website is scheduled to undergo routine maintenance from Friday, November 21, 2025, at 11:00 PM ET (8:00 PM PT) until Monday, November 24, 2025, at 6:00 AM ET. From Friday night at 11:00 pm ET through Saturday morning at about 9:00 am ET, E-Filing will not be available. From Saturday through Monday morning, the E-Filing applications (E-Filing, Online Charge and Petition, and My Account Portal) may be periodically unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience.
The NLRB reopened from shutdown status on November 13, 2025. Due dates to file or serve most documents were tolled during the period of the shutdown, although due dates cannot be tolled for filing and service of unfair labor practice charges, applications for awards of fees and other expenses under the Equal Access to Justice Act, and certain representation petitions. For documents where tolling applies, the terms are that for each day on which the Agency’s offices were closed for all or any portion of the day, one day is added to the time for filing or service of the document. If the new due date falls on a weekend or holiday, the new due date will be moved to the next business day. For example, if the original due date was October 7, 2025 and the shutdown lasted 43 days, the revised due date is November 19, 2025. See chart for revised due dates.

The NLRB's Notice Posting Rule

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has decided not to seek Supreme Court review of two U.S. Court of Appeals decisions invalidating the NLRB’s Notice Posting Rule, which would have required most private sector employers to post a notice of employee rights in the workplace.
The NLRB remains committed to ensuring that workers, businesses and labor organizations are informed of their rights and obligations under the National Labor Relations Act.  Therefore, the NLRB will continue its national outreach program to educate the American public about the statute. 
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit stated:  “[I]t  is also without question that the Board is free to post the same message [that is on the poster at issue] on its website.” The workplace poster remains available on the NLRB website.  It may be viewed, displayed and disseminated voluntarily.  In addition, the NLRB has established a free NLRB mobile app for iPhone and Android users to provide the public with information about the National Labor Relations Act.
Under the National Labor Relations Act, most private sector employees have the right to:

Organize a union to negotiate with employers concerning wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment.

Form, join or assist a union.

Bargain collectively through representatives of employees’ own choosing for a contract setting wages, benefits, hours, and other working conditions.

Discuss terms and conditions of employment or union organizing with co-workers or a union.

Engage in protected concerted activities with one or more co-workers to improve wages, benefits and other working conditions.

Choose not to do any of these activities, including joining or remaining a member of a union. 
Workers who believe their rights have been violated should contact the NLRB promptly, as there is a six-month statute of limitation.  Inquiries regarding possible violations can be made without an employer, union or anyone else being informed of the inquiry. Charges may be filed by any person and need not be filed by the employee directly affected by the violation. As examples, the NLRB may order (1) an employer to rehire a worker fired in violation of the law and to pay lost wages and benefits; (2) may order a union to adhere to its duty of fair representation; and (3) may order an employer or union to otherwise cease violating the law. Employees should seek assistance from the nearest regional NLRB office, which can be found on the Agency’s website: www.nlrb.gov.
The NLRB can also be contacted by calling toll-free: 1-866-667-NLRB (6572) or (TTY) 1-866-315-NLRB (6572) for the hearing impaired.
