Introduction

Labor unions were first established by workers to pursue collective workspace goals such as wages, benefits, work rules, and power. Unions have had a presence in many major businesses and industries throughout the history of the United States. Some unions have only skilled workers while others welcome workers regardless of skill or training. Unions today are somewhat different than they were 100 years ago, but the ideology remains the same.
