I was curious about this union..so I looked into any major grievances they have.Cannonpointer » 22 Jun 2022, 4:20 pm » wrote: ↑ No, that is a house union. But I suspect it hs some trade unions rolled up in it. Like the AFL-CIO, which has member organizations like the iron workers' union, but also has house unions.
I'm not saying that all shop unions are bad. I'm only saying that I have never seen a good one and I have seen a lot of bad ones.
Well one grievance was that the workers at Hershey want to take a share of the record profits. There was no mention whether or not they would take a pay cut during hard times, though.
Then there was this...."One woman named Janice Taylor told the labor media outlet More Perfect Union that she was required to work for 72 days consecutively. She said, “I was exhausted both physically and mentally.” Taylor and others also detailed how Hershey has created a two-tier system at the factory where newer workers are paid less and have significantly fewer benefits."
Imagine that..a system where the workers who have less experience get paid less...what is this world coming to..?
Her state law should be pretty straight forward about the issue of working 72 days in a row...I wonder if she bothered to look at that..?
