My understanding is that a large portion of their workforce is striking, but it is not a unanimous strike.

That's like saying Biden is not unanimously President, lol. I think you meant to say that scabs have crossed the picket line.

I guess it depends if the entirety of the PG is unionized or not, of which I am unsure.

I've worked in factories where all the hourly workers were unionized, I've also worked in factories where joining the union was optional and it was about a 70/30 split for those who joined and didn't respectively.

In the case of the latter if the 70% unionized guys striked and the 30% non union members kept working they wouldn't really be scabs

There are members of the union who are scabbing. Do not click the Post Gazette and do not give them money.
