However, these workers still get to benefit from unions\u2019 protections just as if they did.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Are right-to-work states better?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>No, right-to-work states aren\u2019t better.<\/b> Some studies show that right-to-work states enjoy higher employment rates and lower costs of living, but other studies show that these states also see lower pay rates and aren\u2019t actually any better off financially.<\/p>\n<p>This is generally attributed to the fact that right-to-work states don\u2019t require workers to pay union dues but require unions to provide the same protections to workers at unionized organizations whether they pay their dues or not.<\/p>\n<p>This means less money for the unions with the same expenditure requirements, which weakens them and often means lower pay and fewer benefits for employees.<\/p>\n<p>However, some right-to-work states have an easier time attracting companies since they can promise they won\u2019t have to deal with as many union requirements. They also typically have higher employment rates, and their workers enjoy taking home a larger percentage of their paychecks and having the freedom to choose to join a union or not.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Are there unions in right-to-work states?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Yes, there are unions in right-to-work states.<\/b> Being a right-to-work state doesn\u2019t mean it can\u2019t have a union; it just means that employees can\u2019t be forced to join those unions as a condition of employment.<\/p>\n<p>This means workers choose to join unions before or after being employed rather than being required to be a part of one to be hired or to keep their jobs. It also means companies can\u2019t just automatically subtract union dues from workers\u2019 paychecks without their permission.<\/p>\n<p>However, workers can still benefit from unions\u2019 protection even if they aren\u2019t technically union members. Many industries or companies are unionized, which means that everyone in them gets the same protections whether they pay their dues or not.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Businesses are subject to many laws at not only the federal but also the state level.
