大侠行天下日记 我见我闻我思 0419


纽约苹果员工要求组工会


位於纽约中央车站的苹果商店的员工正在醖酿组织工会  员工们已经开始签署加入工会 如果有三成员工赞成 工会方面将帮忙员工们成立工会 该组织已经成功地為星巴克员工组成了工会


根据参加签名的员工表示 由于物价飞涨 员工薪水无法跟上物价 他们同时希望有更多的工作保障 工会人士表示 只有他们能帮助员工争取应有之福利


根据政府统计处公布 目前政府工作人员百分之四十已经有工会组织 而私人企业只有百分之六点一加入 这和一九八三年时的百分之十六点八相差甚远


苹果是目前全球最有价值的大企业 员工们认為苹果每年在全球赚进大把钞票 必定可负担对员工更多的福利待遇


长久以来 在纽约 旧金山 洛杉磯等由民主党执政之城市 工会之力量非常庞大 尤其是演员工会 建筑工人工会 一直是工会最能表现其力量的地方 他们控制了业主和员工之劳资关係 因而在工资福利也在不断上涨


美国目前存在的民主和共和两党 其执政之方式有极大不同 民主党比较同情弱势团体 支持工会组织 而共和党则较保护业主 近年来许多大企业都纷纷撤离大城市希望到税率较低的地方发展


二年来的疫情已打垮了许多小企业 能够倖存下来的 也是在不断努力奋斗之中 全国経济在通货膨涨及利息上升之情势下 将会导致经济下滑 我们主张政府除了辅导各型企业之生存外 更要重视员工权益 不然工会化将对企业造成许多困扰



 


New York Apple Store Tries To Unionize


Some workers in New York City's Central Park Apple store are seeking to form a union to seek better pay and benefits. Some of the employees have begun collecting signatures to file a petition to unionize. If 30% of them agree, according to the National Labor Relations Board, they can hold the election.


Workers United, an affiliate of the Service Employees International Union, also was successful in organizing a union effort for Starbucks.


Some workers said a union is needed because wages have not kept pace with the cost of living in New York City. They also want better job protection.


Today 40% of government workers belong to a union. Only 6.1% of private sector employees are union members. Memberships have been falling steadily from the 16.8% level in 1983.


Apple is currently the most valuable and largest enterprise in the world. Employees believe that Apple earns big money and can afford more benefits for them. 


For a long time in New York City, San Francisco and Los Angeles there have been very strong unions locally. Because the epidemic has affected so many small businesses over the last two years and with rising inflation and higher interest rates hurting more business owners, we urge the government to pay more attention to small businesses. Their survival is key. Unionizing will really hurt them in the long run.
