Unionism, Seniority and Turnover Industrial Relations: A Journal of Economy and Society 22,3 (September 1983): 362-373.

This paper tests the exit-voice model by estimating the union effect on quits and total, temporary and permanent layoffs separately for older (i.e., more senior) and younger (i.e., more junior) men. The results are supportive of the exit-voice model. First, unions are found to have a much larger (in absolute value) negative effective effect on older than on younger men's quitting, and to raise young men's total layoffs to a greater extent than older men's. Further, although unions have large significant positive effects on temporary layoffs for both male cohorts, collective bargaining was found to raise young men's and lower older men's permanent layoffs. |
