摘要

信息流不断膨胀,与此同时,决策也变得更加复杂。员工、组织和社会在有效识别和利用信息方面面临着日益严峻的挑战。在危机背景下,为支持管理决策,对及时、正确信息的需求甚至会进一步增加。会议和员工参与委员会(自愿或强制)等沟通渠道对于员工、管理层和部门内部之间有效的知识流动至关重要。然而,人们对它们在危机不同阶段的创建模式却知之甚少。本实证研究调查了金融危机对员工参与委员会的引入和解散的影响。我们利用德国 IAB 机构面板,采用条件差分法框架,提供了雇主在经济衰退的不同阶段成立或解散员工参与委员会的经验证据。我们的研究结果表明,受到负面影响的企业更有可能引入沟通渠道,尤其是在危机期间。

Navigating uncertainty: Employee participation dynamics in times of crisis

The flow of information continues to expand exponentially while, at the same time, decision-making becomes more complex. Employees, organizations, and societies face an increasingly hard challenge in identifying and utilizing information effectively. In the context of a crisis, the need for timely and correct information increases even more to support management decisions. Communication channels such as meetings and staff involvement committees (voluntary or mandatory) are crucial for efficient knowledge flows between employees, management, and within divisions. However, less is known about their pattern of creation at different stages of a crisis. This empirical study investigates the relevance of the Financial Crisis for the introduction and dissolution of staff involvement committees. Using the German IAB Establishment Panel, we use a conditional difference-in-differences framework and provide empirical evidence of whether employers initiated or abolished staff involvement committees in different stages of the recession. Our findings reveal that negatively affected establishments are more likely to introduce communication channels, especially during the crisis.
