Unions decline as a driving force for better safety conditions
In the U.S., employed Americans who report being members of labor unions are significantly less likely than nonunion employees to say they are “completely satisfied” with six of 13 job aspects, according to a recent Gallup Poll. These include workplace safety, recognition for accomplishments, flexibility of hours and job security.
In only one job aspect, employer-provided health insurance, are union workers significantly more likely than nonunion workers to say they are completely satisfied.
