_aABSTRACT. A democratic country like the Philippines protects and preserves the rights of every Filipino citizen. Their inherent rights as individuals and workers are sanctioned by the State. The right to self-organization is guaranteed by our Constitution. Nurses, because of varied and complex problems and issues confronting them which individually, they cannot solve the necessity to organize themselves cannot be overemphasized. The concept of unionism is a very timely and controversial issue. This study aimed to assess the nurses' perception towards this concept: the nature, characteristics, principles, aims and activities of labor unions. This study identified the factors that affect their perception, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of labor unions as perceived by practicing nurses. This investigation will be valuable to the respondents, to the nursing association, to the nursing profession because this will create a strong political awareness among nurses and can be a basis for further action. This will help the faculty in preparing their students to the reality of nursing practice. The community as the end consumer of health services will be able to receive quality care rendered by happy and productive nurses. An assessment of the nurses' perception will allow the nursing association to review the programs related to the welfare of the caregivers.

They should continue to be more sensitive to the needs of nurses as well as for the promotion of their general welfare. 2. Nurses in any setting or in any type of hospital should be encouraged to discuss such topic. They should attend seminars, forums and other forms that will increase their extent of awareness regarding unionism. 3.

Hospital administrators are encouraged to create an atmosphere of trust between management and employee and provide a two-way communication. 5.
