Comment on How does employing a rapist not constitute an unsafe work environment for female employees?
SatanicNotMessianic@lemmy.ml 8 months ago“Right to work” means employees can work in a union shop and receive the benefits of such without having to join the union or pay dues. It’s a set of laws that have successfully destroyed unions.
You’re thinking of “at will” employment laws, which means an employer can fire an employee for any reason or for no reason, but not for an illegal reason (which varies depending on state but includes the right to organize and rights against discrimination and retaliation).

Oh, of course. Thank you for pointing that out.

Sorry - I should have realized others would point that out as well. I didn’t mean to pile on.

No worries, I assumed it was done in good faith and appreciated the heads up. Thanks!
