Attitudes of American Male Workers Toward Union Certification Report, Columbus OH: Center for Human Resource Research, The Ohio State University, 1983 Cohort(s): Young Men Publisher: Center for Human Resource Research Keyword(s): Attitudes; Industrial Sector; Unions Using data from the NLS of Young Men, this study found striking differences in attitudes toward certification among union and nonunion sectors in the U.S. workforce. In addition, strongly persistent attitudes are observed across industries and by race within the nonunion sector. Four job characteristics (autonomy, security, pay adequacy, and the degree of danger associated with the work) were significantly related to positive attitudes toward certification. Forces other than job characteristics or economic environment must lie behind the conversion to pro-certification attitudes. Likely candidates are the relative power of individual actors in the industrial relations system, the legal provisions which help to establish power relationships, and the character of management structure in specific industries. |
