Striking features of the Portuguese labor market

William H. Greene and Ana P. Martins

The present paper develops a simple asymmetrical informational model that allows us to understand the individual´s willingness to participate in a strike. We develop and compare two signaling models of strikes: in one, firms are able to monitor and enforce hours and offer different workweeks to the two types of workers a previous part-time/full-time wage schedules separating equilibrium was presented. In the other, only one work-week schedule can be offered.
