Answer 1

It protects lazy workers and keeps corporations from taking advantage of the hard workers. Usually through union dues and union reps who you can complain to in the odd chance someone fucks with you. But 100% of the time all I saw was people who should have been fired get protected. Like stealing and shit was protected.
