What Explains the Union Membership Gap between Migrants and Natives?
研究了23个欧洲国家中移民与本地工人入会率的差异,发现个体特征无法解释差异,而目的地国家的产业关系体制,特别是工会的制度嵌入性,影响了移民加入工会的可能性。
Abstract This article explores the differences in unionization rates between migrant and native‐born workers in 23 European countries. It explores whether individual characteristics or contextual factors explain the variation across countries in the degree of trade unions’ inclusion of migrant workers. The analyses show that individual characteristics cannot explain the variation in the difference between migrant and native unionization rates. Characteristics of the industrial relations regime in the country of destination, in particular the institutional embeddedness of trade unions, affect the likelihood that migrants join trade unions as compared to native workers.
