4 in a court of law, a member of the jury who is chosen to be in charge of the jury's discussions and to speak officially for them:
Where controversy was avoided, the foremen's views dominated.
The working class is the most left-wing group, and it appears that routine non-manual workers are to the right of the foremen and technicians.
Workers remain fearful of arbitrary dismissals and female workers in particular are treated poorly by certain foremen.
The census category from which the 51 percent figure was calculated included foremen along with wage workers.
In other contexts of early industrialization, employers tried to replace labour-lords with foremen and managers as industrialization matured.
By contrast, the effect of foremen and technicians rises as controls are added.
Like foremen in plantations or textile mills, maestros, rather than bakery owners, were often singled out by workers as the source of their discontent.
As a consequence, it is difficult for the leader to provide an incentive for the foremen.
