Being safe includes paying attention. Here’s what I mean by that.
In 2023, it is astonishing how many strikes are led by unions over unsafe working conditions. Not over pay raises, not over benefits, although these issues may be involved. Often, they are not the reason for the strike. Workers are striking over unsafe working conditions a lot in 2023, it seems to me.
Unionized workplaces record significantly more reports of unsafe working conditions than shops where the workers do not have a union.
If you thought that unions are bad for workers for some reason, and employers are always good, be open to the facts of the thing.
Use this one example to try to remember: Maybe it’s not what you think.
GO FORWARD
