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.
I suppose co-ops?
Traditional company? Maaaybe some mom and pop no one has heard of. I wouldn't count on it.
Yes, but they don't make news or to the top of lemmy for very long ever. Paizo is an example of a relatively established company that welcomed unionization. I'm sure there are others.
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
Yes but they are small.
