Question 4 • SSHS IUS002 US History II

Which of the following best describes union busting?

Answer
A
Union busting is a method of negotiating with employers.
B
Union busting is a refusal to buy or use a certain product.
C
Union busting is an action taken against organized workers.
D
Union busting is a way to protest low wages and long hours.

Explanation

Union busting refers to actions intended to weaken, prevent, or break up a labor union or its organizing efforts. So the best description is “an action taken against organized workers.” Refusing to buy a product is a boycott, while protesting low wages and long hours describes labor activism, not union busting.
