This is the Clause that Always Ends, It Stops Here and Now, My Friends

Last week I profiled a case illustrating a circumstance where a company was forced to continue honoring a contractual clause even though its labor agreement had expired. As luck would have it, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) just issued a new decision in which a company was found to be in the right when it ceased offering a benefit under an expired contract. Comparing this new case with the prior one can provide some valuable labor law insight for companies.
