Are there general protections for engaging in industrial activities?

The protections against adverse action on grounds of industrial activities are set out in ss 346 and 347.

These protections afford equal protection to persons whether they choose to be members of unions or not. They also provide protection against adverse action on the grounds of engaging or refusal to engage in certain forms of activity, such as organising or promoting unlawful activity for or on behalf of a trade union or participation in (protected or unprotected) industrial action.
