Unions, including the CNA, make many promises
during an organizing campaign.
Employees need to understand a few basics
regarding what a union can and cannot do.
Even though they will promise
and guarantee (not in writing) that you will have a voice in how
your organization will be run and what you will get in
collective bargaining, the true fact is that their main concern
is, at your expense, to increase their revenue and their
political power.
The truth is, Unions, including the CNA,
DO NOT; WILL NOT and CANNOT:
-
Create jobs while trying to force you (or negotiate in your
behalf) to pay up to $80.00 per month for a job you applied
and got yourself
-
Pay their employees high salaries (see
financials) while not willing to guarantee (in writing)
to improve yours
-
Provide or pay for their own employee and their relatives (see
financial) benefits while not
guaranteeing (in writing) to improve yours
-
Will not tell you that under the law: “collective bargaining can
be hazardous for employees and as a result…employees could
possibly end up with less benefit after unionization as
before."
-
Attack your hospital as a place that do not take care of
patients, something that not only discredits your facility,
it also discredits you by making people believe that your
hospital hires lousy nurses
-
Will not tell you that the law clearly states that "the duty to bargain collectively does
not compel either party to agree to a proposal by the
other, nor does it require either party to make a
concession to the other."
-
Will not provide for or contribute to any patient care
-
Will not invest or contribute to the successful operations or financial results
of any organization
-
Will not spend any of their revenues on behalf of any of
their individual members
-
Will call for rallies, boycotts and strikes during working
hours that disregards the needs of the patients (the sama
patients they so much want to protect) and other non union
staff
-
Cause unnecessary expense to your facility and its
infrastructure to force them to cave in to their demands
while totally disregarding patient care and community
interests (see union tactics)
-
That their organization is run not by nurses but by -and
perhaps owned- by ex Teamsters organizers (see
The Boss)
To
see how where the CNA spends members dues and
other revenues (See
CNA Financials).
AN
INFORMED VOTE IS A NO VOTE!
