union security agreements

Union security agreements are contracts between a labor union and an employer that outline the conditions under which employees must support the union. Typically, these agreements require employees to join the union or pay dues as a condition of employment. The goal is to ensure that the union has sufficient resources and membership to effectively represent workers' interests. These agreements can vary by location and legality, and they aim to promote solidarity among workers while providing the union with the necessary funding to negotiate better wages and working conditions.
