The workers have joined to create the first trade unions to help each other.
The day before, in Great Britain, 1830, the workers joined forming the first associations called first trade unions in order to offer help between them.
Yesterday, 1830, in Great Britain, land of the revolutions, workers from the same industry, trade or company have formed associations called trade unions. These have been the first associations of workers, and have appeared because they wanted to protest against the factory owners. They have said that if negotiations with the business owners failed, they would use strikes to protest. They aimed to improve working conditions, the salary, etc. In these unions, they offer mutual assistance in case of accident or injury, or if someone with children dies, these unions would take care of them.
