How is this different from mandatory training we all have to do on customer data privacy, compliance, diversity and inclusion, etc.? It's work time. You get paid to do it. I think unions are some of the most evil, corrupt, harmful institutions to have ever existed. On par with drug cartels and such in terms of harm to society. Not even talking about old time unions (my opinion of mafia was lowered by their union associations) - someone I know is in the union right now, and despite being left wing and kinda captive audience they keep telling me about all the stuff the union does - work prevention, corruption, feather-bedding, bureaucracy and general waste. And while they don't care that much, I sometimes get the impression that the apathy is caused by helplessness - speaking out against the union won't achieve anything but will probably make it very hard for you to get jobs in the industry. I think in this way unions are literally worse than something like CPC/etc totalitarian govts, at least CPC's incentives can be aligned correctly some of the time. So, mandatory anti-union training is kinda like mandatory anti-patient-abuse training (for doctors), or e.g. anti-harassment training.
