Unions in the United States were first organized in the early nineteenth century. The main purpose of a union is to bargain collectively with employers on wages, hours of work and working conditions. Until the 1930s, unions were at a serious disadvantage compared to management, mainly because few laws recognized workers` right to organize. With the passage of the National Labor Relations Act (Wagner Act) of 1935 (29 U.S.C.A. § 151 ff.), the right of workers to form, join, or support unions was recognized by the federal government. There are two main types of unions: craft unions and industrial unions. Trade unions are workers who work in a specific occupation, such as electricians, carpenters, plumbers or printers. Industrial union employees include all employees in a particular sector, regardless of their occupation, such as auto or steel workers. In the United States, craft and industry unions were represented by various national trade unions until 1955.

The craft unions that dominated the American Federation of Labor (AFL) opposed the organization of industrial workers. MARK.
