Interesting. That's the default by law here in Sweden, but can be negotiated with the union -- usually in exchange for better severance compensation.
- trashtester 3y agoI actually had Sweden in mind when writing it.
- Snild 3y agoMaybe I was unclear (or I'm not getting your point): forcing the company to go only by seniority is what happens without the union.
