A Model for Patterns of Industrial Relations

Abstract: Abstract Union structure varies across countries and industries. Union members consist of workers in the specific individual firm (enterprise union), in the industry (industrial union), or engaging in the specific job spanned over industries (crafts union). Wage bargaining structure also has various patterns in accordance with union structure, but the actual operation and results of bargaining have not necessarily coincided with the existing institutional union structures, e.g., strongly coordinated Shunto wage bargaining under the enterprise union in Japan and decentralised tendency of wage bargaining in other countries.1
