Business agents in the building trades: A case study in a community.
The market structure of building construction makes the industry unique in the business scene. As a result, so too is the role of the principal union official in the building trades--the business agent. This study, based on first-hand observation of the business agent at work, describes his daily activities, analyzes his relations with workers and employers, and examines the meaning of his job to the business agent as a person. Comparisons are made with the situation of officers in local industrial unions. (Author's abstract courtesy EBSCO.)
