They signed the employment contracts blindly without asking difficult questions? So now they blamed the company for treating them badly.

In real world, companies are not charity organisations. It is all about gain and profit. They can fire you when they deem necessary.
They can don’t compensate you if the company says it has no $$$.
Luckily I never join Union. I know they are JLBs. Matters are done in closed door.

This is why I have already proposed earlier.
Ban company from hiring for at least 1 year who done abrupt retrenchment. Remove most of incentives from the company given by the govt.
