Industrial Unions

Industrial unions are labor organizations that represent all workers within a particular industry, regardless of their specific job or skill level. Unlike craft unions, which focus on a specific trade or occupation, industrial unions organize workers from various roles—such as assembly line workers, electricians, and clericals—within the same industry. This allows for collective bargaining power over wages, working conditions, and benefits, aiming to improve the rights and welfare of all members. Examples include unions in manufacturing, healthcare, and transportation sectors, serving to unite workers in pursuit of common goals.
