Why Do Workers Leave Unions? – Group Differences between Workers in Ccoo-catalonia
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This study analyses the characteristics of members leaving trade unions in Spain – specifically the Catalonia branch of Workers’ Commissions (CCOO-Catalonia) – alongside their reasons for leaving using a variety of data sources. Our findings indicate higher union attrition among members in more precarious employment situations (i.e. temporary employment, low seniority). In general, union leavers confirm that their job situation is an important reason for leaving the union. We therefore conclude that efforts made by unions to support members in vulnerable labor market positions are important in order to reduce rates of union attrition.

متن کاملInformed Preferences? The Impact of Unions on Workers’ Policy Views
To what extent, and in what way, do labor unions shape workers’ political preferences?
