Having a union means having more security, transparency, better protection, and a stronger voice in times of crisis.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The above shows how employers tend to view their interests to be in conflict with those of their employees. While employees are the ones creating value in this arrangement, they lack any decision power in company-structure-related matters.
