Not to derail, but I think you're conflating "right to work" with "at-will employment" here - you're describing at-will, where the employee/employer relationship can be severed by either party at any time for any reason.
"Right to work" is a union-busting concept: regardless of collective bargaining agreements an individual has the right to their employment, whether or not they pay dues to a union.
Just wanted to correct a common mistake I see made often in these discussions.
- braingenious 4y ago> "Right to work" is a union-busting concept… Yep! “Right to work” is a way of framing union-busting rhetoric in a way that appeals to people that consider themselves to be libertarian(ish), so I’ve intentionally used that phrasing to try to highlight that both unions and union busting can fit under “libertarian” depending on a person’s intent.
- gingerrr 4y agoGot it! Ignore my "correction" then, makes sense and definitely paints the point well.
