RestrictedAccount, in Washington state: farm workers excluded from union and collective bargaining rights, face retaliation for standing up against mushroom company. In solidarity, ILWU refuses to load company shipments

Violence and harassment, including sexual assault are illegal. Why don’t the unionized police step in to help?

/s lol sorry I couldn’t help myself

RestrictedAccount, in Blue Bird employees vote union in South. Management responds by curtailing lunch breaks and cracking down on worker discipline.

This is going to end well. /s

TechNerdWizard42, in Saudi Arabia, where unions banned, set to host FIFA 2034, faces human rights challenge for forced labor, debt bondage, denying migrants access to their own documents

The exact same article could be written about the USA. Stop spreading propaganda about things you don’t understand.

nova_ad_vitum,

No it couldn’t and you’re transparently full of shit.

They really plan football venues 10 years in advance, and couldn’t find somewhere that isn’t evil?

barsquid,

FIFA is corrupt af, as is IOC.

Union busting is an avoidable cost.

Did someone at *$ figure out they can solve a labor shortage or something by having a labor union? Or are they working at some other anti-worker scheme in the background?

SkyezOpen,

They probably finally realized that union busting efforts result in them being forced to immediately recognize and negotiate with the union, provided the votes exist to create it. NLRB is on roids now.

jmcs,

Maybe the dumb fucks finally understood that employees that care enough about their job enough to go through the hassle of forming a union are employees that are not “silently quiting”. Probably not, but it would be a win-win situation for everyone if they understood that no one is on the side of long term success of a company more than its employees.

SuperCub, in Canadian summer of discontent: border management claims employees not allowed to work to rule. "People would be doing their work... How can you discipline people for following procedure?"

Union members could use work-to-rule, a tactic where employees do their jobs exactly as outlined in their contracts.

Employees should ALWAYS work to the rules. You’re not doing yourself or your comrades any good when you don’t.

SwingingTheLamp, (edited ) in Union-busting firms like Littler Mendelson and Morgan Lewis advise corporate management to break labor laws because of low violation costs

Maybe we ought to take a cue from Vietnam.

Dasus, (edited ) in Finland: right-wing government restricts political and sympathy strikes

I could’ve easily guessed this.

Finland isn’t the lintukoto people think it is.

rami, in Niagara strike against forced overtime: scabs can't keep up, management asks for custody agreements if employee wants time with kids

In case anyone gets the same idea I did, the title should probably read “management asks to see custody agreements[…].” Thankfully the company does not have custody of the children.

avidamoeba, in Three weeks into strike, Del Monte management closes factory without notice or severance. By using temp agency, they avoid having to provide benefits, pensions, vacations, sick pay, etc
@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

The use of temp agencies in Ontario isn’t uncommon. Fiera is another notorious company that does this.

SplashJackson, in Three weeks into strike, Del Monte management closes factory without notice or severance. By using temp agency, they avoid having to provide benefits, pensions, vacations, sick pay, etc

Del Monte is actually a Spanich word meaning, “Del Massive Assholes”
