Another Transparency Project from OSPRI 
The website dedicated to providing information about the RI State Labor Relations Board. Back to the LRB Watch HOMEPAGE
Early in our research, it became obvious the some cases establish major policy interpretations while others decide narrower fact intensive cases that do not reflect any serious shift in labor/ management relations as arbitrated by the board. The establishment or reinforcement of precedents of potential wide application was the principal guide in our categorization, although we also gave modest weight to the semantic importance of the issues or parties, bars to government innovation, and the size of the potential monetary stake. Only with your kind support can we continue these services. Please consider making a tax deductible donation today.

*in these cases, although one side 'prevailed', by the time they did there were no real priniciples of labor law left on the table, the issue was moot, or the sanction amounted to a prospective 'don't do it again'. These cases could be considered to have no winner. Find older decisions HERE
