In the first situation the challenge is whether the employer should follow the contract that was agreed upon with the National Labor Relations Board or not. One point of view is that the employer should follow the contract that was agreed upon. The agreement stated that the employer was going to reinstate and pay a certain amount of back pay to each illegally discharged person. By law once a contract is made and agreed upon, both parties are liable for following through with their part of the contract.
