Yup, that's reasonable too.
But like, that makes it a lumpy salary and not a bonus if it's an entitlement without a reasonable low floor. Are there union contracts that actually dictate it like that?
Setting aside for a moment the understandable and reasonable belief that owners will try to fuck labor, a mandated cost divorced from the broader company financial performance metrics, sounds like a way to ensure bankruptcy. Even without this tariff nonsense there are real and honest cases where costs can skyrocket and a company has to adjust and that really does can little to nothing for the bonus pool (or other labor cost) without incurring a lot of financial risk.
Again, not an argument against unions, 100% support organized labor, but at some point math is math.
Yes and, labor unions have foregone bonuses in moments like that. The working class has had to pry those bonuses back.
I don't think contracts are as rigid as most people would imagine. Especially if the rank and file vote not to collect on the bonus.
The math do be mathing though.
Yup fair point.
