In Trompler, Inc. v. NLRB, +338 F.3d 747 (7th Cir. 2003), the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals addressed whether a non-union employer had committed an unfair labor practice by terminating six employees who had walked off the job in protest of their supervisor's failure to prevent sexual harassment, to deal with an employee's drug problem, and lack of knowledge about how the machines worked.
