trade union (複數 trade unions trades unions)

  1. 工會
    • 2013年9月28日,Kenan Malik,“London Is Special, but Not That Special”,New York Times‎[1]
      When the first wave of postwar immigrants arrived in Britain in the 1950s and ’60s, it was a period of rising wages, full employment, an expanding welfare state and strong trade unions. Today, Britain’s manufacturing base has all but disappeared, working-class communities have disintegrated, unions have been neutered and the welfare state has begun to crumble.
