UNION SHOP: An employment arrangement, usually written into a collective bargaining agreement, in which a firm is free to hire both union and nonunion employees, with the stipulation that workers must join the union once hired.

Those states with right-to-work laws effectively outlaw union shops. The alternative to a union shop is an open shop.
