Let's put automation and wages aside, there is another service unions enforce.
You see there are a lot of good employers and there are also a lot of bad ones.
Union will put whatever protection they can for their member into the contracts.
That not always fool proof many employers will spend time and money to find workarounds to achieve their financial goal without any care about the workers.
These same companies are the ones if a worker drops dead on the floor, they will replace them before their body gets cold.
I know there are many that don't believe that to be true, but you can't believe what went into some of our contracts just to make sure they would survive the job.
