Second Circuit overturns NLRB ruling on Starbucks dress-code case

A three-judge 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the National Labor Relations Board’s ruling that Starbucks violated workers’ rights at a Manhattan store by banning union shirts and multiple pins, saying the board failed to properly balance employees’ rights with the company’s image and safety concerns; the case is remanded for a new, more evenly weighed assessment.
