Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lamar's recognition of the union based on false claims violates Sections 8(a)(1) and 8(a)(2) of the National Labor Relations Act, which prohibit employers from interfering with employees' rights to engage in union activities and from recognizing a union that does not have majority support among the employees. The Landrum-Griffith Act does not apply to this situation. Section 8(a)(4) and 8(a)(5) of the National Labor Relations Act deal with different types of unfair labor practices, such as discrimination against union members and refusal to bargain with a union.
