Being fiscally conservative means limiting what rights workers get.
Being socially conservative means limiting what workers get rights.
Which part of that belongs in a labor movement?
I don't understand, isn't this a good thing?
No. It is either very naive or done in bad faith.
You can be leftist / progressive without shutting the door to people that don't fully agree with you, but pretending that work reform (or antiwork) can be something a-political & divorced from progressive ideals is going to set you up for failure.
