dc.description.abstract | This paper investigates the interaction between establishment-level codetermination andindustry-level collective bargaining in Germany. Based on a simple bargaining model wederive our main hypothesis: In establishments covered by collective bargaining agreementsworks councils are more likely to be engaged in productivity enhancing activities and lessengaged in rent seeking activities than their counterparts in uncovered firms. Using datafrom German manufacturing establishments, our empirical analysis confirms this hypothesis.The presence of works councils exerts a positive impact on productivity within the coveredindustrial relations regime but not within the uncovered industrial relations regime. Incontrast, the presence of works councils has a positive effect on wages within the uncoveredindustrial relations regime but not to the same degree within the covered industrial relationsregime. | en |
