  1. 1 See Glossary of terms for definitions. Data in this table are based on unfair labor practice cases that were closed during fiscal year 1980 after the company and/or union had satisfied all remedial action requirements.
  2. 2 A single case usually results in more than one remedial action; therefore, the total number of actions exceeds the number of cases involved.

198 of 199 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out. 1 cell breaks a sum: 'A. By number of cases involved', column 2: prints 9,978, the subtotals in columns 3 to 9 add to 0.

Reader’s notes

p. 210. The table is printed sideways (landscape) on this portrait page; it has been read rotated upright. The crop shows page 197 only and the table is cut off: section B ends mid-list at "Objections to employment withdrawn" with no closing rule and no footnote block, so the remaining section B rows and all footnote texts fall on the following page. No footnotes are printed on this image. Total all column, row "A. By number of cases involved": a small raised digit precedes 9,978; it is read as a footnote marker 2 (transcribed as 9,978^2), but at this scan resolution the digit could be another numeral. Its footnote text is not on this page. Note that 9,978 is not the sum of the section A rows below it (those sum to 13,847), consistent with it counting cases rather than actions; transcribed as printed. Union / Order of— / Court column, row "Other conditions of employment improved": the glyph is faint and partly broken; read as 1. This is the reading consistent with the printed Union total for that row (176 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 177); every other row in the table also sums correctly across its panel, so no printed total appears to be in error. Rows carrying an em-dash rule in a whole panel (Employer or Union not applicable to that action) are given as empty cells, per the dash-rule convention. "A. By number of cases involved" carries a dash rule in all 13 value columns except Total all. "B. By number of employees affected:" is treated as a section line with no values: it ends in a colon, carries no leader dots, and the figure 4,508 aligns with the following indented line "Employees offered reinstatement, total". Stray ink specks sit next to the Employer/Board value 108 and the Employer/Court value 54 in "Employees placed on preferential hiring list" (section A), and in the Union/Formal settlement column near the last section B rows; these are scan artifacts, not digits or punctuation. Wrapped headings joined and end-of-line hyphens repaired: "Recom-/mendation/of/adminis-/trative/law judge" to "Recommendation of administrative law judge", "Informal settle-/ment" to "Informal settlement", "Formal settle-/ment" to "Formal settlement". Wrapped row labels joined likewise: "Recognition or other assistance with-/drawn", "Employees placed on preferential hiring/list", "Other conditions of employment im-/proved".

p. 211. 14 columns: stub, "Total all", then six Employer columns and six Union columns. The Employer "Total" and Union "Total" headings each span the lower three heading levels, so they are repeated there; the stub heading "Action taken" and "Total all" span all five levels. This image is a continuation page: the table body begins in mid-section (the rows above "C. By amounts of monetary recovery, total" belong to section B, whose section header is on the previous page), so no section line precedes the first row here. Printed-text details: in the "Total all" cell of the "C. By amounts of monetary recovery, total" row the figure is typeset with a space after the thousands comma ("$58,057, 778"); transcribed as $58,057,778. The Employer "Total" heading has a stray ink mark before the word in the scan; it reads "Total". In the Union "Recommendation of administrative law judge" column the zeros for the three monetary-recovery rows are set far right within the cell but are unambiguously in that column. Possible misprint in the source: footnote 1 refers to "fiscal year 1980" although the caption is for fiscal year 1989; transcribed as printed. Footnote marker 2, defined under the table, does not appear anywhere on the visible portion of this continuation page (it is attached to a row or value on the earlier page of the table). All arithmetic cross-checks (component columns summing to the Employer total, Union total, and "Total all") hold for every data row as transcribed.
