Overview
Unions are the protectors
of workers rights...
America's unions have directly and indirectly benefitted
all workers in wage, benefits, safety and employment rights.
Most non-union workers assume that they have the same rights
as their union brothers/sisters. However, for non-union
workers the law is employment at will. An employer
can hire/fire and run their business as they see fit.
A union contract binds the employer to follow the terms
of the union contract, often including seniority rights
and discharge only for just cause. Non-union workers
often falsely assume that they have these same bargained
for rights.
