Home Depot loses to US labor board in dispute over Black Lives Matter issue


The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) made a landmark decision on February 21, ruling that Home Depot had breached labour laws by disciplining an employee, Antonio Morales, for wearing a Black Lives Matter (BLM) emblem at work. This 3–1 decision overturns a 2022 ruling by an NLRB administrative judge and marks a significant recognition of the rights of employees to express solidarity with social movements under the National Labor Relations Act’s “mutual aid or protection” clause.

The case revolved around Morales, who, after voicing concerns about racial discrimination at Home Depot, was compelled to resign when pressured to remove the BLM signage from his work apron. The NLRB’s ruling acknowledges that Morales’s actions were protected under the clause that allows employees to band together to improve or protect working conditions, including protesting against racial discrimination.
