12. Right to work laws go further

We have them here in Colorado and if you think you have been discriminated against or in anyway mistreated at work forget about filing any grievance. You can be fired for bringing up the subject. Senior workers are especially singled out for "rotation", a new management style is directed at keeping workers on edge and suspicious of each other, and at the same time staffs are told to report "issues" in order to maintain "transparency".
My wife works at a hospital where these objectives are clearly spelled out in curriculum for upper management advance courses. There is also an system that favors advancement of less qualified people putting the "peter principle" firmly in place.
As with all "laws" proposed by the folk at ALEC, the "Right to Work" means the opposite.
