Bibliogr.
"Using British national survey data, this article assesses the impact of unions on management practices to reduce labour costs, implement high-performance work systems, and make employee welfare provisions. Relative to non-union workplaces, those with unions are found to have practices which are consistent with 'mutual gains' outcomes."
