Discipline By Management Is Upheld By WLB
The War Labor Board upheld management’s right to discipline employees who strike in violation of contract. It reversed the Detroit Regional Board, ordering Norge Machine Products division of Borg-Warner Corp., Muskegon, to reinstate 41 former workers with seniority but without back pay. The ruling sides with management while a local AFL union had pressed for discharge and back pay, with dissent from WLE labor members.
