A company that trains and assists their employees demonstrates investment in human capital. This is an action of respect and good-will. And hey, the products are efficiency and competency (styled by the trainers) and cooperation and loyalty from their employees! Maybe we should start our own company of happy people.
Kudos to your employer for figuring some of this out rightly.

True true.
True true.
A contributing reason to why skilled labor trades are so understaffed is that companies no longer want to invest in labor. Companies simply do not want to spend the money on training. They have explained, foolishly, that it's a much better deal to find somebody already trained off the street, that way if they don't work out they "don't have a dime in them".
So now we have an undertrained labor pool created by companies who are the benefactors of this same training.
Genius.
#MerryChristmas to you Kari.
I understand the author's frustration.
If a labor union gets to the point where decertification by the company is a real concern then the union's primary goal at that time should be to organize. Companies that are facing high percentages of organized workers don't pull that crap.
The key to unionization is always organizing. We seem to forget that sometimes and we end treating symptoms of failed organizing.
My opinions are my own.
Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics says overall, fatal injuries up in 2021.
Without question, unions are the champions of safety. If you're in a Union get involved and be part of the process.
If you're not in a union call any trade union in your area of expertise and ask them how to be organized.
Be your brother's keeper.
