The Supreme Court upheld this finding and also noted that acts of violence occurred during the illegal strike. It declared the employment of union officers and members who committed prohibited acts to be forfeited.

conducted, but the results thereof were never submitted to NCMB. Petitioner went on strike. On private respondents petition, it was declared as
