Yes I agree, as stated the action has to be classified as "unofficial" as the walkout was not notified to the company but it was a safety issue so they all walked off the job as it was too dangerous.... so therefore walkout was "unofficial".

Any Union does not support or condone any unofficial action as the company could sue the union for recommending it.

That is why the union is saying this.
