Out of curiosity, did you contact the HR department of your company?
This isn't mentioned at all in your post so it's unclear if you
attempted to do so.  Unions are not the first line of defense for this
sort of thing and neither is quitting your job.  Contacting HR would
be my first step.

Alot of (bigger) companies have very paranoid HR departments who live
for this sort of complaint.
