Comments on: Unions reps protest against R&H Construction /news/2012/01/12/unions-reps-protest-against-rh-construction/ Building and Construction News in Portland, Oregon and the Pacific Northwest Thu, 29 Nov 2012 09:15:51 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.6.6 By: Fred Segal /news/2012/01/12/unions-reps-protest-against-rh-construction/#comment-98779 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 09:15:51 +0000 /dailyblog/?p=76314#comment-98779 Usually in protests, the employees would be the ones parading their fury. However, this is a group of union representatives protesting “on behalf” of the victimized staff members. I am unsure if there’s any difference in the builder/construction industry, but I have always thought unions are made available to protect and solve such miscommunications between employers and staff. But in this article, since the union itself is protesting, so who will step in to resolve the conflict?

If the people working for R and H had a problem they could picket, but the Union should only protect the people that pay dues to them the other workers don’t want there “protection”

They can defend themselves with politically right answers all they want, but if the union groups were doing the right thing, they would be forced to meet the demands of the workers. I think what they need is to have an open discussion.
