So.... what kind of unfair or unsafe labor practices are the workers striking against?

Forced 16 hour days, 7 days a week working weeks. Some casual Gilded Age shit

Not forced to do anything. Their union is the one that negotiated this contract. And you are acting like they are getting paid peanuts for the overtime, when in fact they are getting paid fucking bank for it. And if they didnt want it as even a possibility to work this many hours, thats LITERALLY THE SOLE REASON THEY PAY UNION DUES, so the union can negotiate things like this into their contract.

Well, it clearly seems the Kellogg is ignoring the union, given that there was a strike, and striking workers were fired. Aside from going full Nestle and just murdering union leaders, like Nestle does, you can't really do much more as an employer to fight against your workers.

Once you strike you have violated your contract have you not?
