Algonquin Industries was a small business that hired mostly recent immigrants to the United States and paid them a minimum wage. The business prospered and people began to come around to organize the workers into a union. Officials of Algonquin spoke

against the advisability of joining the union. Finally, a date for a certification vote was set. In the days leading up to the vote, Algonquin officials began to intimate that those workers who voted against the union would receive overtime opportunities "as they became available." A charge has been brought that this is an unfair labor practice. Decide.


The threat of reprisals or promise of benefits to coerce employees in the exercise of their rights, in this case to organize into a union, is an unfair labor practice.
