Because the union is striking over it

No, I want management to develop a system to determine who is low-performing, document when those workers don't meet the standards of performance, and reference those documents when they fire someone.

It's just asking for due process.

Due process for employment is probably more important than fair pay in most union contracts.

Your argument is in fact that exact same one that was used to argue against due process in legal proceedings. "In reality it doesn't play out and you get this group of criminals running free on legal technicalities."

If you are in a union shop and have a large contingent of unproductive employees, it happens for the same reason as non-union shops. You have bad management. Just Cause is almost entirely asking management to do a little paperwork and a little planning, things that are supposed to be their job anyway.

I think DEI as implemented is worse than this. It’s a calculated, prepared defense against the possibility of future bigoted behavior.

Corporate America (which increasingly includes universities whose primary business is endowment investment) don’t just want to wash away our past, they want to ensure they can keep operating business as usual.

DEI is insurance. Yeah the bad thing may happen but we paid for it before hand so we are insulated against further repercussions.

You have it reversed. The color of your skin determines how much UV protection you get. Skin color is 1-1 correlation to the average hours of daylight a population experiences. High melanin skin is required to live in the equatorial regions to prevent over exposure to UV rays. Low melanin skin is required in the northern regions to prevent under exposure to UV rays.

We saw a mass migration of eastern Europeans to the middle east mid 20th century and the result was the catastrophic increase in skin cancer rates.

We saw a mass migration of middle Easterners to great lakes region in the same period and we saw a catastrophic increase in depression rates.
