The Effect of Unionism on Worker Attachment to Firms Journal of Labor Research 1,1 (March 1980): 29-61.

Olin Institute at George Mason University Keyword(s): Behavior; Grievance System; Job Tenure; Unions; Wage Effects; Wages Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Findings from an investigation of the effect of unionism on job tenure show that: (1) trade unionism is associated with greater job tenure and lower probabilities of separation; (2) the increase in worker attachment to firms resulting from unionism is due to changes in worker behavior caused by union work settings; and (3) some of the union effect on tenure appears due to grievance systems which give unions a voice in the job market. In addition, findings suggest that unions have non-monopoly wage effects on the job market. |
