Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)

1. Employees of a textile factory located in the south requested a union representation election with over 90% signed authorization cards. Just hours before the election, employees began to receive anonymous phone calls threatening that if they voted "yes," they could forget ever being able to get a loan or another job in the community. Fearful for their financial futures, many employees cast "no" votes and the union lost the election. In such a case, the NLRB could declare the election results invalid and schedule a new election. 2. Supervisors and managers are not allowed to provide employees with facts, opinions, or personal experiences that might dissuade them from voting "yes" in a union election. 3. John, a retail store manager, is concerned about a union organizing attempt at his store. He decides to visit each of his employees at home to discuss the matter in an "informal" setting. John's actions are likely to be considered grounds for invalidating the election. 4. Discriminatory enforcement of no solicitation policies is considered illegal interference under the NLRA. 5. Under the NLRA, an employer has the right to enforce no solicitation policies on a case by case basis, at their own discretion. Therefore, it is their right to regularly allow employees to sell Girl Scout cookies or similar items while prohibiting a union from distributing informational literature.
