The effects of unions on job flows
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to focus on the role of unions for job flow rates. Design/methodology/approach: The author uses a longitudinal data set emphasizing the importance of the time dimension. Findings: Using the fixed effects estimator, the author finds that unions decrease the job separation rate and the job finding rate. Originality/value: The findings support that the implications of the insider-outsider model by Lindbeck and Snower (1986): unions are beneficial for insiders but harm outsiders.
