C. Tyler Williams Co. set up a committee called the Employee-Owners’ Influence Council (EOIC). All employees were encouraged to become members. Of 150 employees who applied, 30 of Tyler Williams’ 8,000 employees were selected by the company. They discussed such issues as medical insurance benefits, the Employee Stock Ownership Plan, and family and medical leave. Is this type of employee–management team in violation of the NLRA?
