Once independent contractors are able to unionize I believe union membership will go way up. I've read of Google having "red-badge" contractors not even being given earthquake safety gear in safety exercises, just to keep them as separate from the company as possible.
I was a contractor for one of the big players. They had plenty of ways to remind you that you weren't on their team.
Same, I was a "green badge" among all the "blue badge" direct hires
What is earthquake safety gear?
Found the Google contractor
This article describes the contents of a few kits, but it's pretty typical emergency stuff. A first aid kit, whistle, flashlight, some calories dense foods, maybe a Google-branded water bottle.
It's geat that makes sure the earthquake is unharmed
Won't someone think of the earthquake???
