Under the National Labor Relations Act the management of Eva 's Bakery have committed an unfair labor practice by rejecting to have the meeting to hear the requests of the union . This action by management can be categorized as an unfair labor practice because they have refused to bargain with the union . The law is clear that under the NLRA employers are required to bargain in good faith with union representative about terms and conditions of employment , wages , and hours ( mandatory bargaining subjects) . Refusal to bargain about those mandatory subjects is an unfair labor practice . Additionally , the raising of wages for all employees is irrelevant to their case because the union wanted to discuss other terms and conditions of employment not just wages , thus management not only refused to bargain but they also did not solve the issues
