  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 2003 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

180 of 181 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 11,916, the subtotals in columns 3 to 9 add to 0.

Reader’s notes

p. 142. 14 columns: stub, "Total all", then six Employer columns and six Union columns under "Remedial action taken by-". Five printed heading levels; "Action taken" and "Total all" span all five, each side's "Total" spans levels 3-5, and "Recommendation of administrative law judge" spans levels 4-5. Many cells are printed with a short double-dash ("--") meaning not applicable rather than being left blank; following the rule that a dash-rule cell is empty, those are transcribed as "". They are: the whole "A. By number of cases involved" row (all 12 remedial-action columns); all six Union columns on "Recognition or other assistance withdrawn", "Employer-dominated union disestablished", "Employees offered reinstatement" and "Employees placed on preferential hiring list"; and all six Employer columns on "Hiring hall rights restored", "Objections to employment withdrawn", "Picketing ended" and "Work stoppage ended". Printed zeros ("0") elsewhere are kept as 0 and are visually distinct from the dashes. In the "Total all" cell of row "A. By number of cases involved" a small raised 2 is printed immediately before 11,916; it is read as a footnote marker and written as 11,916^2. The caption carries a footnote marker 1 and the body a marker 2, but no footnote text is printed within this crop (it presumably falls below the cropped area or on the facing page), so `footnotes` is empty. The crop shows only section "A. By number of cases involved"; the corresponding "B." section (by number of employees) of Table 4, if any, is not on this image. The body ends at "Other remedies" above a double rule. Column headings are set with en-dashes in "Remedial action taken by-", "Pursuant to-" and "Order of-"; transcribed with a plain hyphen. Likewise "Employer-dominated" is printed with a longer dash.

p. 143. Continuation page: the crop carries the "—Continued" caption and starts at section "B. By number of employees affected:", so part A of the table is on an earlier page. Column headings are reprinted in full on this page, so header_rows is given. 14 columns: stub, "Total all", then six Employer columns (Total; Informal settlement; Formal settlement; Recommendation of administrative law judge; Board; Court) and the same six for Union. Dash cells: many cells print a short double dash ("--", the report's not-applicable marker) rather than being blank — all six Union columns on the four reinstatement/preferential-hiring rows, and all six Employer columns on "Hiring hall rights restored" and "Objections to employment withdrawn". Per the dash-rule convention these are transcribed as "". Genuinely blank cells occur only on the three section-label rows ("B. By number of employees affected:", "Employees receiving backpay:", "Employees reimbursed for fees, dues, and fines:"). The two "From either employer or union" rows and the two "From both employer and union" rows have identical labels; they are distinguished only by the section header above them (backpay vs. reimbursement of fees, dues, and fines), kept in printed order. The caption carries footnote marker 1, but no footnote text is printed within this crop, so footnotes is empty. All rows are internally consistent as printed: each Employer/Union Total equals the sum of its five component columns, and "Total all" equals Employer Total + Union Total (e.g., 19,132+14+779+1,638+1,581 = 23,144; 23,144+176 = 23,320). No misprints detected.

p. 144. 14 columns: stub, "Total all", then six Employer columns (Total; Informal settlement; Formal settlement; Recommendation of administrative law judge; Board; Court) and the same six for Union. The crop is a continuation page: it carries only section C of Table 4, so sections A and B (and any body row bearing footnote marker 2, which is defined under this page) appear on earlier pages. In the heading the Employer panel prints "Recommen-dation of administra-tive law judge" and the Union panel prints "Recommen -dation of administra-tive law judge"; both are joined here as "Recommendation of administrative law judge". The last row label is printed "dues,and fines" with no space after the comma; normalized to "dues, and fines". All printed figures are internally consistent: each row's Employer and Union components sum to their panel totals, the two panel totals sum to "Total all", and the two detail rows sum to the section C total in every column.
