    U.S. labor board issues complaint against Quebecor World CBC News
    Quebecor World is alleged to have intimidated union organizing efforts at its plants in Corinth, Mississippi and Covington, Tennessee.

    The Graphic Communications International Union (GCIU) complained to the NLRB that Quebecor fired a worker for refusing to spy on co-workers, threatened the jobs or transferred others who supported the organizing drive, and demoted an employee for union activities.

    The NLRB alleged that Quebecor World violated the National Labor Relations Act by 'interfering with, restraining and coercing employees.'
