National Labor Relations Board General Counsel Ronald Meisburg has announced an initiative to enhance the public's awareness of the NLRB and the law that it enforces.

As part of that initiative, a user-friendly feature has been included in the new National Labor Relations Board Website – www.nlrb.gov. – to enable members of the public to request that NLRB representatives speak at and participate in meetings, conferences and seminars at no cost.

The new feature furthers the General Counsel's Outreach and Public Information Programs by making NLRB professionals available to provide information about the NLRB and educate the citizens whom the Agency serves. This service is available nationwide, subject to budget and operating concerns.

The public may request an NLRB speaker by answering a few questions on the Speakers feature of the NLRB's Website -- http://www.nlrb.gov/about_us/speakers.aspx -- and electronically submitting the request. Once the request is received, one of the Agency's National Outreach Coordinators will contact the requesting individual to coordinate efforts to provide an NLRB expert at the event.
