Labor unions have historically achieved several key accomplishments for workers, including the establishment of fair wages, improved working conditions, and benefits such as health insurance and retirement plans. They played a pivotal role in securing the eight-hour workday and overtime pay, ensuring that employees are compensated fairly for their time. Additionally, unions have advocated for job security and protection against unjust termination, fostering a more stable work environment for employees. Through collective bargaining, unions empower workers to negotiate better terms and conditions of employment.
