First, this paper examines the process of occupational prestige attainment as well as wage attainment. In the literature on the sociology of labor markets, occupational prestige is itself an important outcome and has been the principal variable used in the study of stratification in society. Thus, the examination of the effects of unionization on the occupational status determination process is significant. Second, the authors include in the wage and occupational status determination equations two important additional variables, race and socioeconomic origins. Finally, longitudinal data is employed to examine whether there are differences in the dynamics of the occupational prestige and income determination process over time among unionized and nonunionized employees. |
