TechNova Solutions, a mid-sized software firm with 520 employees, forms a new union—the TechNova Engineers Union (TNEU). Within days after its formation, the CEO publicly proclaims: "Any employee who signs TNEU materials or attends TNEU meetings will be terminated." The HR department then issues written warnings to TNEU supporters for minor infractions and reassigns several TNEU officers to less favorable projects. The firm also plans to hire a pool of non-union contractors to handle a crucial project to minimize union presence. The TNEU files a complaint with the NLRC alleging unfair labor practices by the employer. Which statement best captures the central doctrine tested and the likely remedies under Philippine law?
