The employee served also as full time union representative. She was offered promotion, but only if she could find the time to do the work, and she was not to have her salary increase until she ceased her union activities. It was held that the offer of promotion with a withholding of a salary increase was capable of being a detriment suffered because of her union activities, and was accordingly unlawful as an ‘action short of dismissal’.
