The Umbrella Workers Local 18 and Parapluie Co had come to a tentative agreement on major issues and the union members voted in favour of it.But nothing was committed to paper yet.Thinking that there were some important outstanding issues that needed to be resolved,the umbrella workers continued to strike.Parapluie Co accused the union of striking unlawfully,since an agreement was in place.May the union continue to strike?
