Establishments of trade unions

Trade Unions serve many functions:

Legally, Trade Unions are the representatives of workers in a given industry during collective bargaining with the employer, and a mechanism for enforcement of a contract then agreed upon.

Politically, Trade Unions are the manifestation of the collective power of the working class. A means to balance power between the owners of business, and those that keep the economy running. A bulwark against exploitation, past or future, of an otherwise disadvantaged class.

In the U.K., the function is to organise a workplace and enlist members and hopefully gain recognition, so they can negotiate Terms and Conditions, H&S and pay. There is a lot of rules and laws that restrict the Unions, the end of the closed shop was a big impediment to 100% membership.
