Manager and supervisor cannot join unions or be part of the union.
You can take action against a union and against manager over violations.
Manager can't join labour union or should not, it seems you have lost control over them so serve a notice to them (Show Cause) and kick them out after proper enquiry besides informing the Registrar of Trade Unions that they are the Managers and does not comes under the purview of definition of employee/workman under the ID Act. Temporary workers can join the union.
Dear Client,
To form trade/labor union seven or more members required.
Any employee whether temporary or permanant can become member.
