The protections are key here. I'd take a slightly lower wage for a healthy work environment any day, and I know that most people agree.
Also if the company refuses and hires scabs you can always put the money towards hiring union enforcers. Mind you we aren't quite there again but I don't we're too far off either, showing up to a scabs home at 2AM to have a nice talk or ambushing the boss on his way home. The glory days may be long gone but I hope to see new glory forged.
What really works is when unions start being powerful enough to dictate governmental policy. That's when things really improve. Of course the millionaires and billionaires will complain about interference, because it's only good when they do it.
