Portillo’s is one of the latest companies to respond to allegations of labor law violations by arguing that the structure of the National Labor Relations Board, which enforces labor law in the U.S., is unconstitutional, according to documents the company’s attorneys filed with the labor board Monday. Portillo’s filings come after labor board officials issued a complaint against the fast-expanding hot dog giant earlier this month, alleging it violated labor law before and after a union election at its Addison food preparation facility last year. Workers at that facility voted 28-20 to unionize in an April 2023 election that remains contested as the company has repeatedly challenged the results. Oak Brook-based Portillo’s is one of a number of companies that have recently raised challenges to the labor board’s constitutionality either in lawsuits, labor board filings or hearings.
