Answer 1

Answer:

Taft-Hartley Act

Explanation:

Taft-Hartley Act is also known as the labour management relations act of 1947 and it restricts the activities and powers of labour unions. It stops unions for engaging in unfair labour practices such as jurisdictional strike, wild strike, political strike, secondary boycotts, and monetary donations to political campaigns.

Robert has violated the Taft-Hartley act by creating a fictional role in the company in order to get his cousin a job.
