One of the first things the Nazis did was arresting and killing union leaders and creating their own union to give people an outlet since the real unions previously broke the Kapp coup in 1923. Far right military took Berlin with the army just kinda looking the other way, but a few days of a general strike through all of Germany made it impossible for the extremists to do anything.
Sounds like an lame attempt to not have them strike as well.
IIRC Honda isn't unionized, so it's probably not about striking directly. Rather, it's likely a lame attempt to not have them unionize as well.
If you’re working in a sector that has unions, they will indirectly benefit you as well. It’s a known fact.
Doesn't mean you shouldn't have a union yourself, though.
Yep. But it also just goes to show, if employers don't want people to form unions, they should have fair rules from the start.
Well said.
Lame?
