Are you referring to at-will employment? Right to work means it is illegal to make it required to join a union as condition of employment.

Is there any separation between the two? Because as far as I know, it was conflated into one union-and-protection busting idea.

Funnily enough, in Poland, I have been covered by Union contract without being a member of the Union. Because you can't force Union membership, but unions negotiate for all employees.

There is nothing in common between the two. They're entirely different concepts.
