Welfare+Capitalism



Welfare Capitalism was an approach that included big companies wanting to follow some their workers decisions so they could prevent strike, avoid union intervention, and keep productivity high. As this started, employers began to raise wages, provide paid vacations, provide health plans, and they also provide English classes for the immigrants. Orginized labor lost members in the time period of the 1920s due to welfare capitalism.
