Abstract

We compare union officer occupational turnaway in Canada, Italy and the United States. We identify three forces that, in addition to industrial relations institutional settings, shape union officers’ individual decisions on turnaway: push, pull and values. We analysed 101 semi‐structured interviews with ex‐union officers. To shed light on the diversity of their turnaway, we propose a typology composed of six types, each of which is based on one force or the interplay of two or three. Our findings suggest occupational values misfit is central. Former officers experienced a gap between their values and the union's external mission and/or internal functioning, or even developed a root occupational values difference. In addition, contextual characteristics seem to shape turnaway, including industrial relations institutions and societal values. Implications for trade union organizational policies are discussed.

工会官员的离职:加拿大、意大利和美国的推力、拉力和价值观
我们比较了加拿大、意大利和美国的工会官员离职情况。除了劳资关系制度环境外,我们还发现了影响工会官员个人离职决定的三种力量:推力、拉力和价值观。我们分析了与前工会官员进行的 101 次半结构化访谈。为了揭示他们离职的多样性,我们提出了一个由六种类型组成的类型学,每种类型都基于一种力量或两种或三种力量的相互作用。我们的研究结果表明,职业价值观错位是核心问题。前官员的价值观与工会的外部使命和/或内部运作之间存在差距,甚至产生了根本性的职业价值观差异。此外,环境特征似乎也会影响离职,包括劳资关系机构和社会价值观。本文讨论了对工会组织政策的影响。
