Abstract

Throughout the course of the twentieth century the labor movement in the United States has taken a number of twists and turns. From unionization during the period of industrialization to the decline of the union and the literal demise of the labor movement in the 1980s and 90s, the American labor force has fully explored the power and process of unionization. Unfortunately, at the present time, many organizations, employers and workers have come to fear unionization, believing that this institution will ultimately promulgate the further decline of labor and the domestic economy. Clearly, the hostility that has been developed with respect to unionization is a notable change from the social sentiment that was present in the United States in the mid-twentieth century. Today, unionization is on the decline and the modern worker is subject to the terms of the at-will employment contract. Although this type of working environment in what is upheld as best for the American worker, research on the overall benefits that can be provided by unions and unionization seems to suggest that unionization provides a better atmosphere for the American worker. In an effort to demonstrate the potential benefits that can be garnered through the process of unionization.
