Question:
4. Did the Union interfere with the outcome of the election by taking the photographs at the picnic? Why or why not?
On the day before the Union election, the Union hosted a free picnic luncheon for employees during the first and second shifts’
meal breaks in a parking lot adjacent to the Young Skin’s plant. At the picnic, the Union took 88 snapshots. During the luncheon, union representatives distributed ‘‘Union Yes’’
T-shirts carrying the slogan, ‘‘The Best Things in Life Are Negotiable. Union Yes.’’ Between ‘‘Union’’ and ‘‘Yes’’ was a square containing a checkmark. To receive a T-shirt, employees were required to sign a pro-union petition titled, ‘‘We Are Voting Yes on August 2nd!’’
which stated that the undersigned employees agreed to openly support the Union and asked their co-workers to join them. This petition was to be used as a handbill on election day.
