Excessive trade union power: existing reality or contemporary myth?

Brian Burkitt

Industrial Relations Journal, 1981, vol. 12, issue 3, 65-71

Abstract: It is now widely believed that trade unions have become too powerful, both in collective bargaining and in relation to government. The Employment Act, introduced by the present government, attempts to regulate these areas of concern—the closed shop, picketing and union decision‐making. Brian Burkitt presents a long overdue analysis of trade union power.
