Guilds established various rules and standards to regulate their trades and protect their members. These included apprenticeship requirements, ensuring that new members were properly trained before practicing their craft. Guilds also set quality standards for products to maintain their reputation, controlled pricing to prevent undercutting, and regulated working conditions to promote fair labor practices. Additionally, they often enforced ethical conduct among members and provided support during times of hardship.
