The two things are not unconnected, @ChrisMayLA6, & represent a fine example of the neo-classical #economic "solution" to #unemployment: clobber the #unions, destroy #collective #bargaining, & return #wages to the state where they can fall below the cost of #reproduction of labour, which is even more possible now than it was in the 19th Century, because we have a #socialsecurity system, funded by #taxpayers, which is rather more humane than the workhouses.

Striking Juniata County Teachers, among the lowest paid in the state, unsuccessfully lobby their corrupt legislators for more equitable bargaining rights. Harrisburg, 1995. #union #unionstrong #unionlabel #unionsupport #bargaining #collectivebargaining #strike #schools

I've supported the American Labor Movement by walking the Picket Line for weeks at a time while on strike during two separate years. Hooray for the American worker! #labor #labormovement #americanlabormovement #strike #bargaining #settlement #picketline #walkingthepicketline

A quotation from Robert Heinlein

Politics is just a name for the way we get things done … without fighting. We dicker and compromise and everybody thinks he has received a raw deal, but somehow after a tedious amount of talk we come up with some jury-rigged way to do it without getting anybody’s head bashed in. That’s politics.

Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988) American writer
Podkayne of Mars, ch. 4 [Tom Fries], Worlds of IF magazine (1962-11)

Bargaining and Inequality in the Labor Market https://d.repec.org/n?u=RePEc:upj:weupjo:25-413&r=&r=eur
"… #bargaining is pervasive: 80% of workers are in firms which say they differentiate pay between workers they perceive to have similar productivity. The typical firm is willing to differentiate pay between 6 and 12%
… firm productivity does not predict whether a firm engages in individual wage bargaining (or by how much it is willing to differentiate wages), but labor market factors do, consistent with theoretical models which emphasize replaceability or tightness in driving frms’ decisions to bargain
… differences in bargaining behavior lead to wage #inequality within the firm: residual gender wage gaps are 3 percentage points larger in firms which bargain. Providing information on frms’ bargaining positions—as proposed by multiple policymakers—would not suffce to close between-group differences in worker behavior: we still see differences, e.g., between men and women, in a hypothetical situation in which we equalize pay information."

New #OPM Guidance directs agency directors to disregard #Collective #Bargaining #Obligations. The agency head’s ability to set overall #telework levels and to exclude specific positions
from telework #eligibility under the Telework Enhancement Act are exercises of #management rights to determine the agency’s #mission and organization, direct #employees, and assign work. #labor #unions #employment #legalresearch #govdocs #legislation #congress https://chcoc.gov/sites/default/files/Guidance%20on%20Collective%20Bargaining%20Obligations%20in%20Connection%20with%20Return%20to%20Office%202-3-2025%20final.pdf

National Labor Relations Act

FINDINGS AND POLICIES

 Section 1.[§151.] The denial by some employers of the right of employees to organize
and the refusal by some employers to accept the procedure of collective bargaining
lead to strikes and other forms of industrial strife or unrest,
which have the intent or the necessary effect of burdening or obstructing commerce by

(a) impairing the efficiency, safety, or operation of the instrumentalities of commerce;

(b) occurring in the current of commerce;

(c) materially affecting, restraining, or controlling the flow of raw materials or manufactured or processed goods from or into the channels of commerce, or the prices of such materials or goods in commerce;

or (d) causing diminution of employment and wages in such volume as substantially to impair or disrupt the market for goods flowing from or into the channels of commerce.

 The 🔸#inequality of bargaining #power 🔸between
🔹employees who do not possess full freedom of association or actual liberty of contract
🔹and employers who are organized in the corporate or other forms of ownership association
💥substantially burdens and affects the flow of commerce,
💥and tends to aggravate recurrent business #depressions, by depressing wage rates and the purchasing power of wage earners in industry
and by preventing the stabilization of competitive wage rates and working conditions within and between industries.

 Experience has proved that ♦️protection by law of the right of employees to #organize and #bargain #collectively
♦️safeguards commerce from injury, impairment, or interruption, and promotes the flow of commerce by removing certain recognized sources of industrial strife and unrest,
⭐️by encouraging practices fundamental to the friendly adjustment of industrial disputes arising out of differences as to wages, hours, or other working conditions,
⭐️and by restoring equality of bargaining power between employers and employees.

 Experience has further demonstrated that certain practices by some labor organizations, their officers, and members
have the intent or the necessary effect of burdening or obstructing commerce
by preventing the free flow of goods in such commerce through strikes and other forms of industrial unrest or through concerted activities which impair the interest of the public in the free flow of such commerce.

The elimination of such practices is a necessary condition to the assurance of the rights herein guaranteed

✅ It is declared to be the policy of the United States to eliminate the causes of certain substantial obstructions to the free flow of commerce
and to mitigate and eliminate these obstructions when they have occurred
by encouraging the practice and procedure of #collective #bargaining
and by protecting the exercise by workers of 🌟full freedom of association,🌟 self- organization, and 🌟designation of representatives of their own choosing, for the purpose of negotiating the terms and conditions of their employment or other mutual aid or protection
