From the Paper:
"Until the late 1800s, employees throughout the world had little protection available to them. The Industrial Revolution brought with it increasingly unsafe working conditions and wages which were, in many cases, barely sufficient for employees to live on. The Industrial Revolution also brought with it a new type of business organization in which employees were increasingly removed from not only the owners of an enterprise, but also the new "managers" who were brought in to oversee day to day operations. As companies grew larger and employed more workers, those workers saw the value of banding together in order to work toward common goals; this idea was not new, but the sheer size of the workforce and the magnitude of the problems in the workplace gave the emerging unions (as they were called) more power than in the past."More papers on Collective Bargaining:
