As explained on The Verge site, Alpha Global will not have a legally binding employment agreement with Google . However, in the future you will have the possibility to exert pressure on the company to sign a neutrality treaty, whose obligation would be to support unionization attempts, although there is little probability that Google will accept these terms.
This news comes after earlier this month workers from Google and the multinational Alphabet of which the former is a subsidiary, in the United States and Canada formed the Alphabet Workers Union (AWU), a minority union that grew 230 members to more than 700 in the week after it was founded.
Among the problems that the organizers of the alliance want to address are the treatment of national problems, international concerns and the obligation of workers to sign non-disclosure treaties.
Alpha Global is another representation that the fight to unionize tech employees is accelerating. If it is successful, it could generate a workforce for the workers of other technology giants, to consolidate not only within a country, but in offices and warehouses worldwide.
