CORE HR: People Group KFF or Bargaining Unit?

Recently saw a debate on whether to use People Group KFF for storing Union Information?
Well, here's my learnings:

To store data inside a Bargaining Unit, you can navigate to the Assignment window and thereafter, select the values as shown below:
1. Choose the Bargaining Unit tabbed region.
2. Enter a bargaining unit code for your employee's assignment. This is usually the legally recognized collective negotiating organization.
Note: You set up your different bargaining units as values for the Lookup type BARGAINING_UNIT_CODE
3. Select whether the employee associated with the assignment is a member of a union.
Note: This tab is not available when you are hiring a Contingent Worker.

Oracle provides People Group KFF for several purposes. If an enterprise wants to group certain set of people based on certain parameters like work type, or location type or benefit eligible types etc, then you can use People Group KFF. These groupings could be based on parameters like ‘Supervisory staff’ or all people belonging to Florida etc. Also you can store Union Information, though Oracle provides a separate placeholder to store Union Information
