I've not seen an example of this. And I do not consider being a member of the union to be clamping down.
- HillaryBriss 9y agohere's an example: in LA a large number of electrical power poles are at end of life and need replacement. but the city is slowed by union rules in efforts to contract this work out to take advantage of the labor force at large: One key obstacle, officials say, is the contract with DWP’s largest union, IBEW Local 18. The agreement requires that managers negotiate with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers before hiring contractors. Initially, the department is supposed to attempt to fill any internal vacant positions, Howard said. The contract also obligates managers to offer IBEW workers overtime to fill some of the need. IBEW business manager Brian D’Arcy declined to be interviewed for this story. from: http://www.dailynews.com/2014/05/06/dwp-lagging-behind-on-replacing-old-power-poles-87000-have-exceeded-their-lifespan/ http://www.dailynews.com/2014/05/06/dwp-lagging-behind-on-re...
