Has there ever been a corporation or company that welcomed unions? Serious question
My last company I worked for in Sweden even one of the bosses was in the Union, the whole company had a very friendly approach to the wokersunion even if a minor dispute occured here and there they were oftenly switly solved.
The Union is strong in my current company and the leadership does not see it as a threat.
Work morale is very high here and the company is extremely dynanic and solution oriented from top to bottom, and we are about 50 people. Also Scandinavia.
Scandinavia, going from viking pillaging to being the worlds example on how to be social and nice... You guys are fucking amazing
Yes, a company I worked for did. They were a mission-driven org that was established to reduce poverty in historically disadvantaged groups. Along the way they, like many mission-driven orgs, became so poorly managed that their employees got pissed at them and decided to form a union. The org voluntarily recognized them, and now gets kicked in the face every 3-4 years during negotiations because the org is still poorly run.
Closest we've got is companies not actively union busting
I suppose co-ops?
Traditional company? Maaaybe some mom and pop no one has heard of. I wouldn't count on it.
