Supreme Court to Take Up Challenges to Union Practices

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

27. While some on this thread

discuss the home care worker who doesn't want to be in a union, I'd like to talk about this sentence;

'That strategy — widely deployed by the Service Employees International Union and the Unite Here hotel workers union — involves pressuring an employer into signing a so-called neutrality agreement in which the employer promises not to oppose a unionization drive.

When is the last time a business caved to 'pressure' from a union that did not yet represent that businesses employees?

I can't think of any. It seems to me the writer revealed his bias. People should have a right to decide to join or not join, when the union is trying to organize. The only way to truly let that happen is for the business to let the organizers in. Once the majority of the workers have decided to accept a union, then all workers are entitled to representation as well as higher wages and better benefits. Higher wages and better benefits which no business has ever, or hardly ever, given willingly to its workers.
