  • Labour Market Regulation

    Open AccessW S Siebert, Stanley SiebertARTICLEEconomic Affairs2005

    Labour market regulation that undermines freedom of contract leads to fewer, higher productivity jobs with employment being across a narrower range of ages. More people are excluded from the labour market, in highly regulated countries and they remain unemployed for longer. This seems to be damaging to welfare. It is possible that the extent of regulation is explained by the relative ability of those who gain from regulation (those in work) to in…

  • Worker Sorting and Job Satisfaction

    Open AccessJohn S Heywood, W S Siebert et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…2002Cited by: 15References: 31

    In initial cross-section estimates using data from the 1991-94 British Household Panel Study, the authors find that union members had lower overall job satisfaction than non-union members, and public sector workers had higher satisfaction than private sector workers. Controlling for individual worker effects (sorting) using panel methods confirms the lower satisfaction of union members, but eliminates the higher satisfaction of public sector work…

  • Recent Developments in Social Policy in the New European Union

    Open AccessJohn T Addison, W Stanley Siebert et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…1994Cited by: 4References: 8

    This paper assesses the recent progress and future direction of labor policy in the European Community, now the European Union. The authors show that most of the mandates foreshadowed under the December 1989 Community Social Charter have now been enacted into law. They analyze the possible costs, as well as the benefits, of these firstphase mandates and show the link between these adjustment costs and the Community's policy of providing subsidies…

  • The Social Charter

    Open AccessJohn T Addison, W Stanley Siebert et al.ARTICLEBritish Journal of Industrial…1992

    This paper traces the development of the Social Charter since its adoption in December 1989. We examine and evaluate the more important policy instruments. It is shown that the mandatory and often ambitious ‘minimum standards’ set by the Commission are difficult to justify in efficiency terms by reference to market failure. Furthermore, the imposition of uniformity on states that are diverse in their patterns of regulation will retard competition…

  • The Social Charter of the European Community

    John T Addison, W Stanley Siebert et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…1991Cited by: 4References: 16

    This study investigates the content, status, and likely impact of the Social Charter, a declaration of social rights (primarily workers' rights) endorsed by the European Community in December 1989. The European Commission, which initiated the Charter, has justified the mandated benefits proposed under it as a means for advancing social equality. The authors argue, however, that by raising costs, inhibiting employment growth, and disproportionatel…

  • The Measurement of Sex and Marital Status Discrimination at the Workplace

    W S Siebert, Stanley Siebert et al.ARTICLEEconomica1981Cited by: 2

    This paper attempts to measure market discrimination against women, defined as receipt of unequal pay for equal productivity, at the level of the establishment.1 Such measurements are of relevance to current policy since, for example, the Sex Discrimination Act (1975) empowers the Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC) to undertake investigations of establishments where there is reason to believe discriminatory practices are taking place. The first…
