Trade unions are thought of as shifting the competitive labor supply curve to the left, which increases the equilibrium wage and provides well-being on working conditions for employees. The unions and their political and economic effect depend on their ability to attract and hold loyal members and to successfully represent their members’ interests in collective bargaining. Employees’ voices via trade unions and collective bargaining are not only substantial to labor rights but at the same time key labor market institutions that have been found to affect the performance of the labor market.
