Open shop

In terms of United States labor relations, an open shop is a place of employment at which one cannot be required to join a labor union as a condition of hiring or continued employment. Open shops are required by law in right-to-work jurisdictions and employers such as the U.S. federal government. An open shop is is in contrast to a closed shop, one in which all employees must be members of a union to be employed, and a union shop, in which an employee must pay dues or their equivalent to the union, but may not be fired if he or she fails to maintain membership in good standing in the union for any reason other than failure to pay such dues. The open shop and the union shop are the labor arrangements permitted by the National Labor Relations Act and the Railway Labor Act.
