Is a successor under an obligation to hire the employees of its predecessor?


The successor is not obligated to hire the employees of its predecessor. However, it cannot discriminate against union members in its hiring to avoid being designated a Burns successor. That is, a new owner cannot have a hiring policy that excludes union members from consideration for a job simply because of their union membership at the predecessor's establishment.
