A study on the effect of trade unionization in European labour markets, with a specific emphasis on its effects on gender inequalities.
|
|
It finds, first of all, that increased unionization is related to the probability of being employed on a standard employment contract for both men and women.
|
|
It also finds no evidence that men seem to carry increased benefits from increased unionization, although in combination with temporary contract and family policy re-regulations, men do seem to experience greater benefits than women.
|
|
At the same time women's employment under standard contracts does not decrease, such that there is no absolute detrimental effect for either gender.
|
|
It does, however, pose the question of the allocation of relative benefits between the genders through unionization efforts.
|
|
The study is limited in that, by averaging outcomes across European nations, it can not account for nation-specific labour market contexts or gender disaggregations.
