As a result of a labor dispute with WaveMakers (a boat manufacturing company), the union organizes a national boycott of WaveMaker boats. When the boycott proves to be unsuccessful in pressuring WaveMakers to concede to the union demands, the union extends its boycott to several other boat manufacturers, hoping they will influence WaveMakers to settle. This action is legal under the Taft-Hartley Act. True or False

Respuesta :

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Taft-Hartley Act is the modified form of the Wagner Act. The Taft-Hartley Act is also known as the The Labor Management Relations Act. This act was passed by the Congress in the year 1947.

It was a federal act that was prohibits certain actions and restrict some activities of the of the labor unions. It prohibits jurisdictional strikes, secondary boycotts, closed shops, mass picketing, etc.

Thus in the context, the strike of the labor union of  WaveMakers boycotting the products of several other boat manufacturers is not legal under the action of the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947.

Hence the answer is FALSE.
