Gender and power in occupational pensions: Trade union strategies and institutional constraints
研究挪威男性主导与女性主导工会如何影响职业养老金政策，发现工资谈判结构和男性工会与雇主的联盟使女性工会边缘化，偏向完全个人化的职业养老金模式。
The shift from state to occupational pension plans has raised concerns among scholars because occupational plans tend to lack the redistributive elements found in state plans. This disadvantages workers with interrupted careers and low pay, who are usually women. However, occupational pensions also enable trade unions, including unionised women, to exert influence. Using Norway as a case study, we investigate how male- and female-dominated unions shape pension policy. We argue that the structure of wage bargaining and the potential for coalitions between male-dominated unions and employers have sidelined female-dominated unions and privileged fully individualised occupational pension models.
