How is "I give my negotiating rights away to a union and they did a worse job negotiating than I did" a "common anti-union tactic?" It sounds like just something that happens from time to time.
- slothtrop 3y agoThat's true, but of course as a member you can pressure/vote for your union to bargain. And at any rate, most of the time union work pays better.
- sneeze-slayer 3y agoTypically because the company is more benevolent to non-union workers in this case so to try to incentivize workers to not join or leave the union. If there was no union involved, then the company wouldn't be so benevolent to non-union workers.
- dontlaugh 3y agoUnions negotiate collective minimums. Individuals frequently manage to negotiate more for themselves, if they have the leverage.
- mfer 3y agoIt depends on the Union and where you're at. Some unions negotiate everything from vacation time to pay bands to how raises happen. There are many places where the hardest worker and the laziest worker make the same. There are places where what you make is solely based on how long you've had the job and it's not negotiable. Unions work differently in different places.
