摘要:A national survey makes it possible to examine employees’ awareness of net
overall reductions in the size of the workforce along with their awareness of
employer policies that promise ‘no compulsory redundancies’. Differences are
investigated between union and nonunion workplaces, and between unionised
workplaces with high membership density and those with low-to-medium density. A
union presence increases both job reductions and job security guarantees to
employees, and high membership density has some additional effects in the market
sector, but not the public sector.
