Abstract

This study provides an evidence of labor unions’ impact on regulatory compliance and emphasizes the need to focus on the roles of third parties in regulation studies. It also provides insights for researchers to pay attention to the role of labor unions to enhance employers’ compliance with labor regulations. This study sheds light on the necessity of approaching regulatory compliance structurally from the internal labor market (ILM) perspective; the fact that the influence of labor unions is strongly shown in enterprises with stronger ILM suggests what to tackle in the Korean context to boost the positive role of labor unions.
