I agree with this from both perspectives. Companies and business-owners should also be allowed to espouse anti-union arguments without automatically being tagged as "evil" or subjected to extra scrutiny.
That said, you're certainly not going to find a nuanced debate in a ... training video. The purpose of this video is literally for the company to train their employees, not to serve as a forum for debating the pros and cons of unions.
- jart 7y agoAmazon never espoused anti-union views, so how could anyone accuse them of being evil? It is however Amazon's firmly held belief that a union-free environment will maximize benefits for its shareholders, customers, and associates (in that order).
- pessimizer 7y agoThe major problem with this is that the employees are captive for a company's anti-union arguments; they're integrated with the job. As long as the union gets to speak to the employees on company time and gets to add pro-union arguments to the training videos, I see no problem with the boss doing so as well.
