NLRB drops case against SpaceX, citing NMB jurisdiction over engineers due to space transport being classified as air travel.
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has dropped its two-year legal case against SpaceX, citing that the National Mediation Board (NMB) has jurisdiction over the company’s engineers, as SpaceX’s space transportation services are now considered part of air travel.
The NLRB concluded it lacks authority to pursue the complaint alleging SpaceX unlawfully fired eight engineers who signed a critical open letter about Elon Musk.
This decision, influenced by a federal appeals court ruling questioning the NLRB’s structure, removes federal labor protections for the workers involved and may affect how similar aerospace industry disputes are handled.
