Well there a big difference between Japan and the USA over in Japan the workers take pride in there work over here with UAW workers you have people who take pride in there work and people who are just lazy and don't even show up to work and the union protects there jobs when they should be fired this causes the workers who had pride in there work to screw off to Quality go s down

[@211teitake]

@@sabrehawk-427 Maybe that's the case but if there is a known issue, the union contract should address it. There should be a clause that allows workers to be fired for objectively poor performance such as being lazy or unexcused absences. I don't think American contract lawyers, employment law experts, and business management experts are so stupid that they haven't figured out how to write and implement labor contracts to weed out bad workers. I don't necessarily think it's a union issue but a management and labor contract issue.

The protection from the union and the union contract can result in people having much entitlement without putting in their full effort. Not saying all the workers are this way but it isnt uncommon. This bad work ethic is why unions get a bad reputation.

I had no idea there were _any_ automotive plants in the U.S. that weren't union (barring maybe some new startups). I used to work at a UAW plant, and the union did make it suck. But the union also resulted in shockingly high pay for very little work. I find it odd that supervisors at Honda are pushing back against unionization. Being a supervisor in a union is a perk, too. Your pay goes up because your employees' pay goes up. Your job is easier because there is a distinct set of rules that _everyone_ has to follow, and if an employee complains about the rules, you just direct them to their union rep. _And_ you aren't allowed to do any work yourself; you are _only_ allowed to _direct_ employees. The rigidness of everything is what makes it suck (no matter if you're in the union or a supervisor), but you can also make a good living for very little work (if you're into that sort of thing). Unions are a requirement because corporations are evil. Don't be evil, and your plant won't be turned into a hopelessly inefficient money pit by people who are tired of being abused and put in harm's way. Pretty simple.

People had secret beds and card rooms set up around the plant because they had so much idle time. Workers there were also paid about $24/hour (in 2014) when non-union shops were making about $15/hour for the same work, not to mention the annual profit sharing bonuses that were thousands of extra dollars each year on top of the regular pay. Shockingly high pay for very little work is the only way to describe that job.

Always going to medical with a work related injury. The company doctor would say you did it at home . Advil and ice . Thank God for the UAW

[@nobaloney10]

Thank you for the good work you do

[@smokingjoe9864]

Lazy and weak workers.

[@tinapettway2175]

Same problem at Hyundai of Alabama

[@smokingjoe9864]

If you owned a company, would you want some general labor employee telling you how to run Your Company. I seen it before in the 70s and 80s. Price yourself out of work. Honda will just go back to the Far East.

Ok so you are a union buster,sad theres still people like you stabbing people in the back for a few bucks, not for nothing but unemployment is at record lows you can find other employment.

[@Pocket_Champs2023]

Disinformation

[@carsonwieker]

[@larrysmith8397]

I have been a member of UAW Local 1590 for 54 yrs -active and retired. Trust me when I tell you if you get representation that will stand up for you when a manager tries to fire you, just because he can, you will kiss the ground many of us walked on in the picket line. STAND UP

[@IndyBuckeye0]

Im so glad I watched this !

[@doggytheanarchist7876]

It's wild how they get away with this obvious abuse of power again and again.

[@f430ferrari5]

Go work for BMW then or Audi or VW or Mercedes. Trash unions. Trash Democrats. Free market. Stop the corruption. If people don’t like the working conditions then QUIT. Go find a better job. Oh that’s right. You all can’t. Victim mentality. Forever victims.

[@Pocket_Champs2023]

Unions = restoring human dignity!

[@BraytonHop]

lol its really good actually working at kroger is harder than honda

[@keithela1067]

Special thanks to the folks in this video who have risked their employment. We don't know what is going on in these factories until some folks speak up. Leaves a bad taste to think that I thought Honda and Toyota were 'good' companies.

[@w.e.s.]

Lmfao nobody works at hpmda bc honda sub contracts out every where across the world. U might be making honda head rest or putting a foor on the same vehicle on the other side of the world

[@wiegraf9009]

All the best to the workers from Canada!

[@Bettinbig7024]

Thanks for posting.

[@garbonzobean1]

I work for Honda. This is pure propaganda. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ceremyjlarkson9475]

I have always loved Honda's automobiles, but their modern factory culture is not only making their vehicles worse but it is cutting into the worker's abilities. I hope they get everything they want from this and get themselves a union, they deserve it. Hopefully Honda will return to being a car maker I can purchase from and know my money goes to the right people.
