    That’s interesting. In which country is that? Here in Germany most union contracts cover an entire industry and all workers in unionized companies there. So an IT employee at a car manufacturer is subject to the same contract as themechanical engineer, the trade master supervisor on the shop floor and the line worker.

    It is not in the interest of the employees to be divided as they have the same employer to negotiate with.

      In Canada at a telco, but engineers are out of scope like management while everyone else in the company is part of the same union.
