In 2015 the German Cabinet Thursday approved a draft labour relations law that would simplify negotiations between corporations and unions. The draft law specified that for any corporation, only a single union would be recognised as the official wage-bargaining partner, and the resulting agreement would hold for all the company's employees. The law restricts union representation in a company and just one union will be allowed to represent a group of employees.

Hurt, labor unions must be banned
@8CM6DHC4yrs4Y
Hurt, and labour unions should be abolished
@8V6RSLM3yrs3Y
The current combative labor unionism and out-of-control laissez faire capitalism both hurt the economy. A more fruitful model like that of Germany, where labor unions have a seat at the corporate board, will be better.
@99LZNH32yrs2Y
Even though they may sometimes hurt the economy, they protect the weaker people (workers) in our society and therefpre should be strengthened.
@99D45WH2yrs2Y
Both, it depends upon the strength of labour unions.
