Blending cutting-edge legal strategies for winning justice at work with a theory of dramatic, bottom-up social change, this practical audio guide to workers’ rights aims to make work better while reinvigorating the labor movement. A powerful organization model called solidarity unionism is explained, showing how the labor force can avoid the pitfalls of the legal system and utilize direct action to win fair rights. The audio edition includes new cases governing fundamental labor rights and can be used not only by union workers, but can serve as a guerrilla legal resource for any employee in this unstable economy.
Labor Law for the Rank & Filer is skillfully narrated by Brian Arens, an Audible listener favorite.
