A collection of unions banded together to further organizing, public relations, and political purposes is known as what?
AA local union of the plant workers
BA bargaining unit of eligible voters
CAn agency shop under the contract
DA federation of member unions
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. A federation of member unions
1. A federation is not itself a union but a collection of unions banded together.
2. The member unions pool effort on organizing, public relations, political, and other mutually agreed purposes.
3. A local union is a single branch and a bargaining unit is a voting group, so neither is a grouping of whole unions.
4. An agency shop is a security clause in a contract, which is a different kind of thing entirely.
