How do labor unions work, and why are they important?

1.14K views

I’m doing research, and my brain isn’t functioning properly enough to translate academic legalese/federalese right now. Can any of you explain really simply how unions are formed, how they operate, and why they’re important? I have a vague understanding that they protect workers, but how?

I had this question a few years ago as well and the best explanation that I git for unions in todays market is that they serve best as a kind of a watch dog organization for workers to hold companies accountable and promote workers benifits.
