Re: Can employer insist employees pose for photos for website
On issue of American companies not recognising Unions, HP had this policy , but as part of moving into BoI IT section, had to change this.
The state recognises Unions, and if you have been mistreated by an employer, Unions will represent you, and bring cases to Labour Relations Commision / Labour Court.
On the issue of downturn in Union Membership, I believe:
1. There is a concerted campaign in O,Reilly media to ridicule/ demonize Unions.Constantly quoting public service Union grievances, stating we all have to pay for their demands, this is true, but does not give even view.
2. Unions went into Partnership deal with Govt. , this limited the scope for Unions to negotiate, making part of their role irrevelant.
3. Unions have not kept up with pace of change in society, have not adapted to modern mediums to advertise / market their services.
As a SIPTU Union rep, I would be interested in ALL comments on this subject.
