Fast food workers have not unionized because of the history that is established for this effort. While some efforts have been successful most have failed and thus many workers don’t even bother to try anymore. Usually when a manager suspects efforts to unionize he immediately informs a person who is higher up in the corporate ladder, actions are taken immediately. A squad of managers and corporate executives are sent in and informal sessions are held where questions are asked to the workers. If the executives do not receive the information they were hoping for, then harsher policies are put in place sometimes even resulting in the administration of lie detector tests. Above all workers don’t unionize because they know that such actions will result in the immediate termination of their position.
