Gewerkschaft (Trade Union)

A Gewerkschaft, or trade union, is an organization representing workers in a specific industry or profession. Its main goal is to advocate for employees' rights, improve working conditions, ensure fair wages, and negotiate better terms with employers. By banding together, members have more bargaining power than they would individually. Trade unions also provide support in disputes and promote workplace fairness. Essentially, they serve as a collective voice to protect and advance workers' interests within the broader economy and society.
