According to the National Labor Relations Board website
(http://www.nlrb.gov) there was only one decision against the Walmart
Corporation, and this particular case was against Sam's Club in 1996.
[322 NLRB No. 2] Sam's Club, Division of Walmart Corporation and Robin
Zaas. Case 7-CA- 36934 available at:
http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=nlrb&docid=f:3222.pdf
In brief, Zaas was denied a raise because of her "protected concerted
activities" (union activities). The findings ordered Sam's Club to
stop threatening employees who were engaging in union activities and
to stop using Zaas' activities as an excuse to deny her proper
remuneration and raises for her work. They also had to give her the
raises she deserved and pay her retroactively. Finally they had to
post and/or notify all employees of their right "to organize, to form,
join, or assist any union, to bargain collectively through
representatives of their own choice, to act together for other mutual
aid or protection, to choose not to engage in any of these protected
concerted activities." A full copy of the NLRB notice can be found on
page 3 of the pdf file.
I located this case from the NLRB's Decision Search page at:
http://www.nlrb.gov/nlrbsrch.html
SEARCH STRATEGY:
I started at the National Labor Relations Board website
http://www.nlrb.gov from the main page, I selected "Decisions" and
then "Search Instructions" on the form on that page, I typed
"Walmart".
I hope that this answers your question. If you need further
clarification, please let me know.
