Youâd be hard-pressed not to find a pair of co-workers whoâve spent years working in close proximity who donât kinda/sorta secretly hate each other. This oneâs lazy, that oneâs bossy, her cubicle is a mess, heâs always taking vape breaks â weâve all been there.
Congress enacted the NLRA on July 5, 1935. It was welcomed at the time and for numerous years later as the Magna Carta of American labor. Before the law, employers had liberty to spy upon, question, punish, blacklist, and fire union members. In the 1930s workers began to organize in large numbers.
Private sector unions are regulated by the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), passed in 1935 and amended since then. The law is overseen by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), an independent federal agency.Public sector unions are regulated partly by federal and partly by state laws.n 2013, the percentage of workers belonging to a union in the United States (or total labor union density) was 11.3%, compared to 20.1% in 1983. From a global perspective, the density in 2010 was 11.4% in the U.S., 18.4% in Germany, 27.5% in Canada, and 70% in Finland.
