Union By Laws

In some countries, trade unions generally have constitutions, which govern activities of the international office of the union as well as how it interfaces with its locals. The locals themselves can set up their own bylaws to set out internal rules for how to conduct activities.

In other countries, such as the United Kingdom, union bylaws are sometimes a subset of the Union’s constitution or implement the union's rules in more detail.
