Stuff like this is why I am pro-union, even when I am not a socialist or whatever.

Employers have all the power over employees, they share data indiscriminately, they have all the information and power. It's only fair that employees have some power back and they can bargain together as a group.

(Ironically in "socialist" countries, the employer has more power, because the employer, the union and the state are all ultimately the same entity, as they are all controlled by the party. But that's a different discussion I guess.)
