It’s no secret that management and corporations are willing to lie if it will save them money. It is common for employers to try to convince workers not to organize a union. Now that thousands of us are organizing across the United States, our employers are spreading misleading information in an attempt to discourage us. We know better.
The best way to combat company misinformation is by educating ourselves about what it means to have a union and engage in collective bargaining and talking to our co-workers. It’s our job to talk to our coworkers and not let the boss be the only voice in the room. Building a VOC that includes organizers from every part of the workplace on every shift will put us in the best position to overcome the employer’s divide-and-conquer schemes.
