Pullman Company. Labor Relations Dept.
Hide Profile
In the 1920's, the Pullman Company formed company-wide occupation-based unions (Plan of Employee Representation) to thwart the outside union organization of its employees.
This policy was abruptly terminated with the 1934 passage of the amended Railway Labor Act, which guaranteed workers free choice of union representation. From that date on, the company accepted outside unions and negotiated with those bodies to reach agreements governing working conditions, wages, hours, vacations, etc.
