The Union Busting Playbook & How to Fight It as Told by Workers at No Evil Foods

Sustain Laborwave Radio by becoming a patron at patreon.com/laborwave Laborwave spoke with workers at No Evil Foods about the company's union busting strategy against a unionization campaign organized by employees. Megan, John, and Max discuss in detail the tactics of No Evil Foods union busting, including a marathon series of captive audience meetings totaling 14 hours, illegal firings, and censorship, and how workers should prepare for aggressive anti-union campaigns conducted by bosses. We also delved into a conversation about "solidarity unionism" and the IWW as a viable alternative to conventional union recognition campaigns. This episode includes never heard before leaked audio from captive audience meetings owners of No Evil Foods forced their employees to attend! Despite being a "progressive" company producing vegan meat alternatives and naming their products in socialist language like "comrade cluck," No Evil Foods prioritizes profit over people and demonstrates a no-holds-barred approach to union busting. Workers have compiled an extensive catalog of information, interviews, and resources for the union busting that took place housed at the website https://www.moevilfoods.com/ Additional resources mentioned in the show: Confessions of a Union Buster by Martin Jay Levitt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-0gxca-VxM Thanks to John Dwyer and In The Red Records for use of music!
