Paper Abstract
A 3 page paper discussing labor unions’ relevance in today’s business environment. At the time they came into being, trade unions were necessary in many industries. Many employers could see nothing wrong at all with working children for long, hard hours; others were largely unconcerned with their workers’ safety. Unions arose at a time when it was virtually impossible for a simple laborer to advance in the company in any meaningful way, and pay often was a subsistence wage that could barely feed and house a family. Businesses and working conditions are different in today’s environment, and labor unions are far less relevant now than in the distant past. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
