Bush Nominees for Labor Safety Slots Have Questionable Records - by Brendan Coyne, The NewStandard, NY
The law firm was also involved in helping the battery company EnerSys stave off union representation. EnerSys was eventually cited for a number of labor law violations and subsequently sued Jackson Lewis for allegedly giving it advice to take illegal actions against workers. Jackson Lewis denied the claims.
