   SUMMARY ORDER

Before the Court is the July 1, 2016 application of Petitioner-Cross-Respondent National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”) to enforce, and the August 10, 2016 cross-petition of Respondent-Cross-Petitioner Long Island Association for AIDS Care, Inc. (“LIAAC”) to review, the NLRB’s June 14, 2016 decision and order. In that order, the NLRB held that LIAAC violated Section 8(a)(1) of the National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”), 29 U.S.C. § 158(a)(1), by promulgating an unlawful confidentiality agreement (“Confidentiality Statement”) and by terminating an employee for his refusal to sign the Confidentiality Statement. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, procedural history, and specification of issues for review.

“We uphold the NLRB’s findings of fact if supported by substantial evidence and the NLRB’s legal determinations if not arbitrary and capricious.” Cibao Meat Prods., Inc. v. NLRB, 547 F.3d 336, 339 (2d Cir. 2008). LIAAC argues that the Confidentiality Statement did not violate Section 8(a)(1) because: (1) the third paragraph of the Confidentiality Statement only prohibited discussion of non-public information but salaries were public information, and (2) the fourth paragraph only prohibited employee speech to the media as a representative of LIAAC, but not employee speech to the media in an employee’s individual capacity. LIAAC’s interpretations are wholly unpersuasive in light of the broad language of the Confidentiality Statement. Regarding the third paragraph, the NLRB permissibly read it as chilling employee conversations about salaries because salaries were explicitly listed as one of the topics employees were prohibited from discussing. See NLRB v. Vanguard Tours, Inc., 981 F.2d 62, 67 (2d Cir. 1992). Regarding the fourth paragraph, there is no language in the Confidentiality Statement limiting its prohibition on talking to the media to instances in which the employee is acting as LIAAC’s representative versus when the employee is acting in his or her individual capacity. “Because of the likely chilling effect of [these provisions of the Confidentiality Statement], the [NLRB] may conclude that the [third and fourth paragraphs of the Confidentiality Statement were] unfair labor practícete] even absent evidence of enforcement.” Id.

“We review for abuse of discretion the [NLRB’s] decision” to impose remedies. Serv. Emps. Int’l Union, Local 32BJ v. NLRB, 647 F.3d 435, 449 (2d Cir. 2011). The NLRB did not abuse its discretion in requiring LIAAC to post the Notice to Employees in this case. The Notice to Employees is commensurate with effectuating the policies of the NLRA. See Virginia Elec. & Power Co. v. NLRB, 319 U.S. 533, 540, 63 S.Ct. 1214, 87 L.Ed. 1568 (1943) (explaining a remedial order will withstand our limited scrutiny “unless it can be shown that the order is a patent attempt to achieve ends other than those which can fairly be said to effectuate the policies of the” NLRA).

The remaining issues on appeal are disposed of in a per curiam opinion filed this day. Accordingly, the order of the National Labor Relations Board hereby is ENFORCED.
