I work in a place with a union and sometimes have a minor role in negotiation with them.

100% WFH put them between a rock and a hard place. Ultimately the power of bargaining is dependent on being able to strike. Remote weakens that as people can be anywhere. The control lost by management is also felt by labor.

The circumstances vary - if your union and circumstances get hybrid and remote work in the CBA, you’re much better as we’ve already seen “return to the office” used as a stealth layoff technique that denys unemployment and severance.

I'm curious how it is used as a stealth layoff. If your role location requirement changes, you should be eligible for layoff UI.
