Description
The Impact of Trade Unions in Jamaica provides an overview of the development and influence of Jamaica’s trade-union movement.
Denise N. Fyffe traces the historical relationship between organized labour, workers’ rights, politics, and national development, then examines the social and economic impact of trade unions and the pressures they face in a changing global economy. The book considers both the achievements of the movement and the questions shaping its future.
A useful introduction for students, researchers, practitioners, and readers interested in Jamaican labour relations and social history.
