Scabs
Open Shop.
A union closed shop is a workplace in which only union workers are allowed and to work and an open shop allows non union workers
It depends on the trade, which city and state you work in, your experience, and union or non-union. I am a glazier in Tacoma, WA. I have been doing this for four years and I am union (local 188). I make $36/hr and $38/hr if I am the foreman on a job.
25.00/hr
If you work in the automobile industry, you should definitely join the union workers. In average, union workers earn more money and receive more benefits than their non-union counterparts. Unions offer workers the chance to join with other workers so that their employer can't take advantage of them.
Unions are always better; Union electricians, members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, make a lot more in wages and benefits than non-union electricians Source: http://www.join-a-union.com answer #2 ------------ Depends on the local market. In a large city there is more work for a union electrician on large construction projects. In a more suburban or rural area a union electrician may be out of work more than a non-union electrician since most projects are smaller and cost is a big issue. Some electrical contractors work in both worlds, their workers get paid union rates on prevailing wage projects and a lower rate on non prevailing wage projects. Most of these contractors are non-union since the union usually won't work for less money. So union members make more when they work but they may not work as much as a non-union experienced electrician depending on the local market and the contractor they work for.

This question needs to be rewritten. I can think of union terms for "open/closed" shops, but I am not sure this is what you want.
