Trade unions are one of the most important institutions of modern society, because industrial relations in modern societies require the instrumental role of trade unions. In addition to the modern system, there is a need for trade unions for the workers' movement and workers. However, the social roles of trade unions and awareness for trade unions vary in different societies and at different times. After the industrial revolution, workers needed an institution representing themselves to protect their rights and interests. This collective labor movement was crucial to the formation of working class identity. In other words, union awareness was the first step towards class consciousness. In this study, the relationship between union awareness and labor relations in Azerbaijan was investigated and analyzed.
