Absolutely. I would not go on a firing spree on a whim, it would take something I considered to be gross insubordination to do something like that, and IMO trying to unionize the company I built fits the definition. Then again I haven't given my philosophy on employee treatment because there is always a fine line between what I want to do to retain quality employees and my available resources and market climate.Firing employees without a real cause (legal, illegal, just, whatever) is very expensive for an employer. Actually, it's the hiring and retraining of the replacement that is costly. Employers of any size do not to it casually and rarely at a whim.
As I am not currently in business for myself I don't have any numbers to share but I do have my general philosophy which is that I will go the distance for loyal employees and do anything possible to retain my full rights as a business owner towards bad ones.
