Working-class movements

Working-class movements are collective efforts by laborers to improve their economic and social conditions. They advocate for fair wages, better working hours, safe environments, and workers’ rights. These movements often organize strikes, protests, and negotiations to influence policies and labor laws. Historically, they have played a key role in shaping labor protections and fostering social equity, emphasizing solidarity among workers regardless of industry or background. Their goal is to ensure fair treatment, dignity, and improved quality of life for the workforce within the broader economic system.
