Therefore, prima facie, there are strong incentives to free-ride on the benefits of trade unionism. We\r\nestablish empirical evidence for a private gain from trade union membership which has hitherto not been\r\ndocumented: in Western Germany, union members are less likely to lose their jobs than non-members. In\r\nparticular, using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel we are able to show that roughly 50% of the\r\nobserved raw differential in individual dismissal rates can be explained by the estimated average partial effect\r\nof union membership"}],"publication":"Labour Economics"}
