Abstract
AbstractThis is the first of two papers dealing with the emergence of black shop floor union power and the changing structure of industrial relations in South Africa. This paper examines the evolution of black and white trade unions and their attitudes towards the officially sanctioned system of industrial relations. The observation is made that black unions are placing greater emphasis on shop‐floor organization, leading to the development of an additional, but unofficial, tier in the negotiation structure in the form of work pi ace‐level union recognition and bargaining.
