Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An open shop is a workplace where workers are not required to join a union or pay union dues/fees, even if the company itself is unionized. This contrasts with a union shop, where workers are required to join the union in order to be hired and must pay union dues as a condition of employment. A closed shop is even more restrictive, as only union members are allowed to work for the company. A managed shop is not a common term in labor relations and does not accurately describe a type of shop based on union membership.
