Labor struggles refer to the conflicts and challenges faced by workers in their efforts to secure better working conditions, fair wages, and job security. These struggles often involve collective actions, such as strikes and protests, where workers unite to demand their rights from employers or government entities. Historically, labor struggles have played a significant role in shaping labor laws and workplace standards. Key events, like the Haymarket Affair and the Pullman Strike, highlight the ongoing fight for workers' rights. Unions, such as the AFL-CIO, have been instrumental in organizing these efforts and advocating for policies that benefit workers.
