The union shop represents a compromise over labor's control of the labor supply.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A union shop is a form of a labor-management agreement where the employer agrees to hire union members only, and employees must remain members of the union at all times in order to remain employed. This arrangement is a compromise because it allows the union to control the labor supply to some extent by requiring union membership, but it also allows individuals to be hired without initially being union members, as long as they join the union within a specified period after being hired.
