2. Valid question. I don't know. Some sort of due process clause, perhaps. I'm not saying it's there, only that it's possible.
3. I still don't expect to see 20 guys get fired over this.
I have no idea what any union could do to prevent an employer from investigating terms of employment conditions. I bet the most the union could do is raise a stink, but that wouldn't prevent the employer from hiring some private investigators to see what they dig up. But so far, as others have said, the union seems to be less than powerful.
