Gewerkschaft

A Gewerkschaft, or trade union, is an organization that represents workers in specific industries or professions. Its primary goal is to advocate for employees' rights, improve working conditions, negotiate better wages, and secure fair treatment. By collective bargaining, unions give workers a stronger voice in discussions with employers, helping ensure that their interests are considered in workplace policies and decisions. Unions also provide legal support and advocate for labor laws that benefit workers more broadly. Overall, Gewerkschaften serve as a collective power to promote fair labor practices and protect workers' well-being.
