Labor Relations: Striking a Balance 4th Edition by John Budd

تمرين 5

Consider the five employees who left together. Assuming that the employees are covered by the NLRA, did Bird Engineering violate Section 8(a)(1) by firing the five employees? In other words, were they discharged for activities that are protected by Section 7? ( Hint: If the employees were on strike, it is protected activity. If their action was insubordination, it is not protected.)
