Right-to-work
WHAT ARE RIGHT-TO-WORK LAWS?
They are...
- Takes away your weekends, free time, vacations
- Offers low quality minimum wage jobs
- Reduces social benefits
- Takes away fair working conditions
- Undermines trade unions
Right-to-work is a concept and right-to-work laws derive from them. The concept covers everything that undermines workers directly or indirectly.
First of all the name “right-to-work” is deceiving. These laws are promoted by political leaders and legislators as ‘good’ and ‘progressive’, when in fact they are NOT. They reflect the interests of anti-union groups, right-wing opinion leaders, banks and greedy corporations that ultimately want to destroy and undermine trade unions. Trade unions are progressive organizations that constantly fight to maintain social rights, equality and benefits for Canadian workers.
