The fact that most of the workforce seems to exist without being in a

I'd argue that such workforces depend on unions elsewhere pushing for
legislation that supports all. They are taking a free ride.

You might, but it doesn't really hold water.

Why is it a "free" ride?

A great deal of H&S legislation is sector specific anyway and there
are whole sectors and functional areas which are devoid of the
clutches of unions.
