Abstract

Understanding the factors which facilitate or hinder workplace innovation is crucial to the survival of many firms. This study focuses on one such factor workplace unionization. In this study we develop and test a theory of the effect of workplace unionization on innovation which incorporates competing hypotheses from previous studies. The extent to which the unionization-innovation relationship might be generalizable to the influence of other organizational groups on innovation is addressed.
