NLRB judge: Whole Foods’ prohibition of Black Lives Matter attire didn’t breach workers’ | |
Whole Foods Market faced allegations of violating workers’ rights by prohibiting Black Lives Matter (BLM) attire, but a recent ruling by a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) judge dismissed these claims. The judge concluded that BLM apparel didn’t fall under the protection of the National Labor Relations Act because it wasn’t directly linked to the job roles in question. Employees who wore BLM-related face masks and clothing argued that they did so to foster a safe environment for their co-workers, aligning with Whole Foods’ commitment to a secure workplace. However, the NLRB General Counsel contended that workers perceived Whole Foods’ enforcement of the dress code as discriminatory, citing racial concerns. They argued that the defiance against this enforcement should be considered protected activity.
