The acquisition and preservation of labour union records in CanadaMurdoch, Wayne James 11 1900 (has links)
In times of shifting cultural and institutional priorities, the acquisition
and preservation of private records by large publicly funded archival
institutions is becoming increasingly problematic. Repositories are looking for
new ways of meeting their cultural mandates while also dealing with reduced
budgets and staffing levels.
This thesis examines the issue from the perspective of who is to be
responsible for the preservation of labour union records and where are they to
be preserved. After putting the issue in context with an literature review and
then by examining the juridical and social framework within which unions
operate the thesis studies the question from two traditional perspectives:
preservation solely by an archival institution and preservation solely by the
organization or union. The thesis concludes by recommending a third option,
a mixed or shared responsibility approach between the union and the
institution, specifically, a cost-shared / partnership arrangement between the union and archival repository regarding the acquisition and preservation of
labour union records.

Unionization of professional engineersMcArthur, Grant Douglas January 1973 (has links)
This thesis studies the possibilities for greater development of unions for professional engineers in Canada. The analysis of the paper serves the purpose of supporting or reflecting the initial belief that more widespread participation in union activities is likely for engineers. The method of investigation is to analyze all relevant factors through use of published material, unpublished material, interviews and conference data.
The general conclusion is that greater involvement in union activities are likely. Throughout the paper it is clear that factors which inhibit union formation are becoming less prevalent in Canada while the need for engineering unions is growing, A new type of "professional' union" is then discussed with original contributions in the areas of union functions, procedural details, union structure and the company side of unionization. / Business, Sauder School of / Graduate

The development of education in the Canadian Labour CongressMaynard, Claire January 1972 (has links)
This study traces the development of union education within the Canadian Labour Congress and its predecessors. During the period when union education in Canada originated immediately after World War II, there were two large Canadian Congresses, the Trades and Labor Congress (T.L.C.), and the Canadian Congress of Labour (C.C.L.). The C.C.L., formed in 1940, and its affiliated industrial unions had a pressing need for union education to familiarize its members with union principles. The T.L.C. as a long-established (1883) affiliation of craft unions had a tradition of loyalty toward union aims and was less interested in educational programs.
When the two Congresses merged in 1956 and became the Canadian Labour Congress the expansion and growth of membership increased the need for education within the unions. Before the unions organized educational programs for their own members other agencies such as the Mechanics Institute and the Workers' Educational Association attempted to provide a program of liberal arts programs. The programs contributed toward the development of the individual competencies
of workers who were not necessarily union members. The peripheral organizations declined as the unions became more adept at administering union education programs.
The C.C.L. with its larger affiliated unions is
considered to be the originator of union education in Canada. Howard Conquergood, A.L. Hepworth, and Andy Andras, executives
of the first education committee in the C.C.L., had a lasting influence on union education trends. The characteristic
methods used in union education programs were week-long and weekend schools devoted to giving the student a thorough knowledge of the union as a viable organization dedicated to furthering the economic and social interests of the member. The rise in membership is identified as a factor in the development of the union education program. With the merger of the T.L.C. and the C.C.L. in 1956 to form the Canadian Labour Congress (C.L.C.), more resources could be directed to education.
A description is given of the role of the labour movement in adult education through various co-operative activities such as the Labour University Conference in 1956, the National Citizens Forum, and the Canadian Trade Union Film Committee. The co-operation of the C.L.C., McGill University, and the Université de Montreal, led to the establishment in 1963 of the Labour College of Canada as an institution of higher education for trade union members. The College provides an eight-week residential program for workers of Canada and also those of foreign countries. Also pointed out is the broad interest shown by the unions in International affiliations and the study of education in emerging countries.
The study concludes by identifying general trends in union education in the past and suggesting some new directions and program areas for union education in the future. / Education, Faculty of / Graduate
