REASON ENOUGH TO WORK
UNDER A COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENT? |
|
The Enron workers have told us they had never
thought about needing a union while the company was in its heyday. They
were treated well and their company stock swelled.
Then, Digna Showers, an 18-year Enron employee, and her co-workers were called to a meeting and told they had a half-hour to pack their belongings. Showers lost her job--the main support for her family--as well as medical insurance, dental insurance, life insurance and her pension, and the Enron stock she had spent years investing in and counting on for retirement became worthless. "Things sure would have been different if there were a union at Enron," she says now. "All of this probably wouldn't have happened, because the union would have been in there checking what was going on."
