There's no mechanism that ensures that no one does things you consider unethical. What an idea!

If my superior asks me to violate stated company policy and my only play is to quit, what do you think is the ultimate outcome?

Why on earth would you want to continue working for someone who would ask you to do that? The union won't make that person any better. Union or no union you are better off going somewhere else.
