Do they have a British equivalent to our labor unions?

Wouldn't need one. It's extremely difficult to get rid of employees in the UK. Conservatively, you'd need 6 months and records after records of "issues" with the follow up counciling.

Really? I run two companies here in England and just fire people if they are breaking their contract or their work is poor. Never had a problem and never councilled them apart form warning them to not let the door hit them in the arse on the way out. I think you are confusing us with France or Germany, where what you say is true.
