Pengaruh Organisasi Kesatuan dan Sikap Majikan Terhadap Keberkesanan Kesatuan dalam kalangan Pegawai-Pegawai Kesatuan Sekerja

Abstract

ABSTRAK Kajian lepas yang dilakukan mendapati organisasi kesatuan mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan dengan keberkesanan kesatuan. Walau bagaimanapun, masih kurang kajian yang dilakukan untuk melihat pengaruh pengantara dan penyederhana hubungan di antara kedua-dua konstruk tersebut. Sehubungan itu, kajian ini bertujuan untuk menguji peranan sikap majikan sebagai pengantara dan jenis kesatuan sebagai penyederhana. Seramai 676 responden iaitu pegawai-pegawai kesatuan sekerja di negeri Selangor dan Wilayah Persekutuan (Putrajaya dan Kuala Lumpur) terlibat sebagai subjek dalam kajian yang dipilih menggunakan teknik pensampelan rawak berstrata. Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan analisis pengesahan faktor (CFA) dan model persamaan struktur (SEM) dengan menggunakan program AMOS 21. Analisis laluan yang dilakukan mendapati organisasi kesatuan dan sikap majikan mempengaruhi keberkesanan kesatuan secara signifikan. Organisasi kesatuan mempengaruhi sikap majikan secara signifikan. Walau bagaimanapun, sikap majikan dan jenis kesatuan bukan pengantara dan penyederhana masing-masing. Kajian ini juga membincangkan limitasi serta cadangan untuk kajian pada masa hadapan.

However, there has been a paucity of studies on the role of the mediator and moderator among the constructs. In relation to this, this study aims to test the employer attitude as the mediator and the role of the type of union as the moderator among the constructs. A total of 676 respondents who are trade union officials in Selangor and the Federal Territory (Putrajaya and Kuala Lumpur) were selected as the subjects in the study, where the selection was made via the stratified random sampling technique. Data were analysed using the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and the structural equation model (SEM) using AMOS 21 program. The path analysis conducted showed that the union effectiveness was significantly influenced by union organisation and employer attitude; employer attitude was significantly influenced by union organisation. However, the results also found that employer attitude and type of union were not the mediator and moderator respectively. This study also discussed the limitations and suggestions for future research. Keywords: Union effectiveness; union organisation; employer attitude; type of union
