LABOR DAY COLUMN ON CARPENTERS UNION AND WORKERS RIGHTS BRINGS QUESTIONS ON THAT UNION MOTIVATION FOR THE WORKERS AND OTHER UNIONS. DO POLITICS WITH PATRONIZING THE POLITICAL ESTABLISHMENT TO GET MORE DUES PAYERS FOR THE UNION LEADERSHIP PREVAIL BY THE CARPENTER BOSSES AT WORKERS EXPENSE?
I read a column for Labor,Day in the Worcester Telegram about a Carpenter Union Official visting construction sites to verify rights of workers which is laudable, Unfortunately, that union and adherence to worker and union rights bring a spotlight on their activities.
The Carpenters Union battle for workers rights is questionable.
When they replaced a roof on one of their owned buildings in Worcester, they utilized non union roofers. Two tenants moved out in protest-Plumbers and Sheet Metal Workers. Next, the other members of the Worcester Building Trades Union set up a picket line with a giant inflated "Rat Doll" in protest of their labor rights on behalf of the Roofers Union.
The Carpenters Union was a lead character in the destruction of the Massachusetts Secretariat of Labor in 1993 and failed initiatives and silence since on the lack of enforcement and administration to protect Massachusetts working Children, Men, and Women and the legitimate Employers who make up our state economy hard fought for centuries.
This Labor Day the emphasis should be on the fact that Massachusetts was once a proud national leader for workplace labor, employment, and safety rights that has now been diminished to that of a third world. The victimization continues of working Children, Men, Women, Legitimate Employers, and Taxpayers by the underground economy and employers who cheat and do not adhere to proper standards and worker rights. Workplace inspection enforcement is at an all time low that the Carpenters Union and allies continue their silence.
I challenge to be corrected.
