Job Satisfaction, Union Membership and Collective Bargaining

Abstract

This article uses data from a nationwide survey of Spanish workers to investigate whether job satisfaction is influenced by unionization when the terms of collective agreements are extended to all the workers, whether members or not. Empirical findings suggest that there is a negative influence of union membership on job satisfaction and a positive one for collective agreements at firm level, but these effects vanish once variables capturing working conditions and the industrial relations climate are taken into account.
