We’re they only asking for 47 million as a ONE TIME fee? If so, this seems silly, yes. Assuming it’s entirely about money and the workers don’t get any other extra rights.
However, if it’s an ongoing thing, or if the workers end up with better rights and contracts in perpetuity, this is worth a LOT more than a few million. They’ll spend anything they have to on this, and save money in the long run.
So the workers will start to leave and only come back if the individually agreed salary is higher. They will still lose that money or permanently lose the workers. But on top of that they’ll lose all the money from the strike.
It is in businesses own best interest to pay wages high enough, that their workers are happy to stay and do their best. You know the Henry Ford paying his workers enough to buy his cars thing.
