I think unions are only helpful when employers are particularly bad and have no intention of improving.
In most other cases, unions are generally harmful, including most public-sector unions.
- AlexandrB 6y agoThe problem is that the needle for "particularly bad" gets moved every year if there's no countervailing force. Short (<3hr) shifts and JiT scheduling were "particularly bad" a few years ago. Now they're probably the norm in the service/retail industry. The new innovation(s) thanks to Amazon seem to be unpaid security screenings and hidden performance metrics. How long until these are just SOP for all large retail companies?
