Walter
Reuther is
living proof that one person can make a difference. Reuther was
president of the United Automobile Workers union (UAW) between 1946 and
1970. Under his leadership, the American and Canadian members of the
UAW obtained their fare share of the enormous wealth they produced
and were able to restore dignity to the industrial work they
performed. Reuther’s work, however, went well beyond contract
negotiations and union organizing. Reuther was widely admired as the
leading labor intellectual of his age, a champion of industrial
democracy and civil rights who used the collective bargaining
process and labor's political influence to advance the cause of
social justice for all Americans. The UAW negotiated model
grievance procedures, safety and health provisions, pensions, health
benefits and "supplemental unemployment benefits".
