craft union

Read a random definition: claim of right

A quick definition of craft union:

A craft union is a type of union. A union is a group of workers who come together to protect their rights and improve their working conditions. A craft union is made up of workers who have similar skills or work in the same trade. For example, a craft union for carpenters would only include carpenters. The purpose of a craft union is to make sure that workers are treated fairly and have a say in their workplace.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A craft union is a type of labor union that represents workers in a specific trade or craft, such as carpentry or plumbing. These unions focus on improving the working conditions, wages, and benefits of their members.

Example: The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) is a craft union that represents electricians and other electrical workers. They negotiate with employers to ensure fair wages, safe working conditions, and benefits like healthcare and retirement plans.

Explanation: The example of IBEW illustrates how a craft union works to improve the lives of workers in a specific trade. By negotiating with employers, they can secure better pay and benefits for their members, as well as safer working conditions. This helps to ensure that workers are treated fairly and can support themselves and their families.
