The primary reason that labor unions were to protect the workers from the new machines introduced by the Industrial Revolution (no!!!! the machines will not hurt them, they will just replace the workers in the factory). The next reason were safety and proper working hours for the workers in the mines. The employers did not care about safety issues for their workers and even made them work for more than 15 hours per day.
I hope I answered the question. Thanks :D
