A National Labor Relations Board judge ruled that a Starbucks manager in Missouri unlawfully barred workers from recording union-related discussions but found the company’s actions too minor to warrant overturning a union election. The union had accused Starbucks of making threats and removing pro-union materials, but the judge determined there wasn’t enough evidence to support those claims. Since the violations were deemed isolated, the judge declined to issue a bargaining order and only required Starbucks to stop the unlawful restriction on recordings.
