The union isn't necessarily going to protect you here either: Your coworkers would also be union members, and you'd just be moving the discussion to a different place that calls favorites too. Do the union reps like you more than they like the harassers? I have seen harassment go south for the harasser, but the cases had one thing in common: The person that was being harassed had far more status than the harassers believed, so, in practice, they were spitting upwards. If high management believes you are the more valuable, likable party, you will win. If they don't, you will lose. Facts are relatively unimportant. So the moral of the story is to make friends in high places. Depressing, but real.
