How to use "Labor union" in context?
It is fair to say that the labor union has been a crucial factor in the rise of the working class and the establishment of safe, secure and effective labor practices in the United States. The first labor unions were formed in the early 1800s in response to brutal working conditions and rampant abuse and exploitation by employers. In the early years, unions were heavily relied on by workers to negotiate fair wages and working conditions and to protect themselves from exploitation by their employers.
However, the labor union movement has undergone a number of changes over the years.
