It's just an exclusivity clause. The employees and management willingly entered into a contractual agreement containing a provision that management ostensibly understood and then completely failed to account for.
If I sign an employment contract that explicitly says "I will be your exclusive provider of X service, I am not available on weekends", the employer shouldn't be surprised when I refuse to come in on Saturday and Sunday or sue them for breach when they hire a second service provider.
- MrStonedOne 5y agoand this would be the core of the "hostile unions are suboptimal" argument you are trying to sidestep.
- pessimizer 5y agoIf the core of your argument is that contracts are suboptimal for people who want more than what is in the contract, it's not hard to sidestep. It's also suboptimal for the employee not to get paid twice as much, or work half the hours.
