Maybe there are right to work laws in other countries, but this article specifically refers to the U.S. law.
A '''right to work''' law is a provision enacted by a state under Section 14(b) of the federal [[Taft-Hartley Act]] prohibiting collective bargaining agreements from establishing a "closed shop" where all employees must belong to a union. These laws generally permit an "agency shop" where employees who benefit from a collective bargaining agreement must pay a fair share of negotiating that contract.
