Workplace Weekly is back in session! Kicking off, reflect briefly on a recent controversy in Denmark's labor landscape. We discuss the accusations against a prominent union boss who is facing allegations of inappropriate conduct and the potential (lack of) ramifications for the union and the broader labor movement in Denmark, exploring the challenges of maintaining integrity and trust within organisational leadership. Fanny and Kate dive into the NLRB's recent decision that upholds employees' rights to discuss their former employers regardless of receiving severance. We got our H&H Legal Eagle to Mansplain the decision too, in case you want to know more. We explore the potential impact of this decision on the future of employee rights and workplace transparency. Next on the agenda, the hosts turn their attention to a highly anticipated moment: Howard Schultz facing Congress to answer questions about Starbucks and its alleged union-busting tactics. We play yet another round of "Who Wants To Be...," pitting companies against an AI to determine who can demonstrate allyship most effectively.
