This chapter opens up a discussion that undertakes the impact of trade union onworkers commitment, using a study of the NUT Enugu state chapter. Beforegoing further, the meaning of ‘trade union’ has to be known, which is defined asthe association of organisations wages and salary earners formed for the purpose of maintaining and improing the employment conditions of itsmembers in a firm or organisation. Therefore, this purpose, the trade unionimpact a lot of !ualities on the workers “employees# based on their efficiencyand commitment to work in an organisation. Thus, the workers gain improedworking conditions through the trade union actiities from the management of the organisation most especially when the employees are slow to action on thedemand of the workers “employees#Then, when these problems facing the workers are achieed thorough the tradeunion, it in turn motiates the workers “employees# to be more committed,focused and dedicated to their $obs due to the sense of belonging that has beenachieed by the trade union on behalf of the workers in the firm. %lso tradeunion has impact on workers commitment most especially on the area of competitors. Thus it is known that the trade union achiees its ob$ectiesthrough collectie bargaining. &f the purpose of the trade unions hae not beenachieed because they act as representaties to the workers and theconse!uences will result as strikes which is not good for the organisation inachieing its ob$ecties, the workers will be committed to work more efficientlyand help the organisation to sustain competitie adantage oer its competitorsunlike the strike carried out recently by NUT which was due to poor salary scheme policy by the federal goernment to the educational sector or ascompared to the other sectors. The result of this problem will be discomfort andnonchalant attitude to the teachers “workers# to do their $obs. &f it is not properlyhandled by the goernment and the conse!uence will bring a lot of disorder inthe education system. &n other words the trade union showed their impact on workers commitment totheir $obs in an organisation by going into dialogue with the federal goernmentin resoling the problem facing the NUT .
