Title | Labour Relations in the Saskatchewan Coal Mines During the 1930s |
---|---|
Date | 1976 |
Physical extent | 1 thesis ; 208 pages |
Scope and content | This thesis concerns the ten strikes which occurred in the coal mines of the Estevan-Bienfait area of Saskatchewan during the 1930s. These strikes occurred during the depression when both operators and miners found themselves in very difficult situations. There was little cooperation between management and labour as each group sought to increase its power, and to improve its economic position. Government attempts to restore peace and harmony to the troubled coal industry were also fraught with frustration. Labour relations in the Saskatchewan coal mines during the 1930s were characterized by conflict, frustration, and frequent work disruptions. |
