摘要

我们研究了工作场所工会化在多大程度上通过防止非自愿离职来保护工人免受外部冲击。我们将 COVID-19 大流行病作为一个冲击整个经济的看似外生的冲击，在差分法框架下比较了大流行病发生前直接在有工会和无工会的工作场所工作的工人。我们发现，加入工会的工人更有可能继续为疫情爆发前的雇主工作，并且就业率更高。这种较高的就业稳定性并没有以较低的工作时间或劳动收入为代价。

Unions as insurance: Workplace unionization and workers' outcomes during COVID-19

We investigate to what extent workplace unionization protects workers from external shocks by preventing involuntary job separations. Using the COVID-19 pandemic as a plausibly exogenous shock hitting the whole economy, we compare workers who worked in unionized and non-unionized workplaces directly before the pandemic in a difference-in-differences framework. We find that unionized workers were substantially more likely to remain working for their pre-COVID employer and to be in employment. This greater employment stability was not traded off against lower working hours or labor income.

期刊介绍： Corporate restructuring and downsizing, the changing employment relationship in union and nonunion settings, high performance work systems, the demographics of the workplace, and the impact of globalization on national labor markets - these are just some of the major issues covered in Industrial Relations. The journal offers an invaluable international perspective on economic, sociological, psychological, political, historical, and legal developments in labor and employment. It is the only journal in its field with this multidisciplinary focus on the implications of change for business, government and workers.
