Tiivistelmä: | This article deals with two aspects of union renewal strategy: merger and increasing women's involvement and activism. The authors refer to a case study of the National Union of the Lock and Metal Workers (NULMW), a small union that appears to have succesfully promoted women's involvement contrary to the usual expectations about manufacturing union contexts. It is suggested that the reasons why women have done so well within the NULMW is associated to the small size and community-based nature of the union, including its alignment with the historical development of the lock workforce. |
