Depends though, because in theory you could then have wildly different employment conditions depending on which union / industry you work for.
Of course, if another industry has better conditions, you can always vote with your feet. Competing for employees benefits the employees, in theory.
This is why I don't understand the "we can't find staff" thing. No, you can't afford staff, there's a difference. Offer me more money and a training program and I'll change my career. It's that simple.
