Q1. Barney and his co-workers have the right to protest unsanitary conditions in the workplace despite their being unorganized. In NLRB v. Washington Aluminum Co, 370 US 9 (1962), the Court upheld the walkout of a number of unorganized employees because the company failed to repair the heater in the workplace at a time when the weather was very cold.
