The evening before a union election, an employer held a company picnic for its employees. Attendance at the picnic was required and the company president gave a passionate speech urging employees not to vote for the union. The most likely reason the NLRB would consider this a violation of the NLRA is:_______
A) The picnic amounts to a captive audience meeting held within 24 hours of the election.
B) The picnic could be considered an inducement or reward for not voting for the union.
C) The president’s passionate speech could be considered threatening.
D) None of the above; the employer did not violate the NLRA in any way.
