Outcome
The Fifth Circuit granted Zep's petition for review and denied the NLRB's cross-application for enforcement, holding that Zep's arbitration agreement requiring individual arbitration of employment claims and waiving class/collective actions does not violate the National Labor Relations Act, and that the agreement's explicit carve-out for NLRB matters clearly preserves employees' right to file unfair labor practice charges.
