The Establishment And Administration Of Pension Plans In The Labor Relations Process, Robert J. Hickey

Vanderbilt Law Review

The purpose of this article is to analyze the role of pension plans' in the labor relations process. The earliest pension plans had their origin in the early nineteenth century and were pioneered by fraternal associations established and operated by and for the employees. The advent of unions on the labor scene resulted in the union, instead of the fraternal association, administering the program. As for employer pension plans, the union leaders feared that such programs were only a devious employer's device to prevent unionization. Thus, prior to World War II, employer pension plans were usually unilaterally instituted. However, beginning …

Vanderbilt Law Review

As one of the two major social insurance programs created by the Social Security Act of 1935, it has become generally accepted as one of the nation's most important measures against the privation of unemployment and as a stabilizer of the economy in helping offset the down drag on economic activity resulting from excessive joblessness.
