Even if you're running the squeaky-cleanest operation possible and don't treat your workers like crap, any organization would want to oppose unionization on purely rational time & overhead grounds.
- jollofricepeas 6y agoThis is definitely not true at all. I used to work for a union print shop. It was something that in our case both the owners of the business and employees agreed to do. In our case, unionization lead to an increase in revenue and more sales for the company. Unionization has its benefits primarily for employees but there are benefits for employers. It really depends on the nature of the business.
- _huayra_ 6y agoI think the benefit when a well-run union and a well-run business negotiate is that employee satisfaction is up and turnover is down. A union can be a bulwark against employers treating employees like garbage because relatively high un- and underemployment means they have a steady stream of employees who won't say "no".
