Question:
With all the protections that employees have through the union, many do not realize that this comes at a cost. Union's charge membership fees to its members called dues which can either be a flat fee or a percentage of their salary per check. Another way that this can cost the worker is during a time of collective bargaining for example, this may require the workforce to take time off and use vacation time (Gaille, 2017). For the employer, these costs can be far greater such as loss of productivity, legal fees and also increased pay or benefits that may be at the root of the issue at the time. These Acts were passed to balance both sides and the cost of unionization including membership does not come without a cost. What are your thoughts on this?
