Document Summary

Whether the contract is in writing or not. Employment law law of master and servant, this is where it comes from. The development of the middle class, no middle class no incentive for the wealthy to change things and no power for the poor to use. Middle class had disposable income, with that disposable income came a social consciousness. When you have more money than you need to live on, you might be more willing to give back. Women became involved in politics, the causes that women have aligned themselves with in politics are the vulnerable: poor, children, workers, etc. Unions had an impact on the labour landscape, unions discovered that although individual employees have virtually no bargaining power, together collectively they have a lot of power. What is not debatable is that unions are here and not going anywhere.
