Third, collective bargaining, an indispensable factor in promoting better working conditions, is in peril. While trade unions are resilient actors in most of the upper-middle and high-income countries, they face challenges from expanding outsourcing and subcontracting, migrant workers, and employer and government hostility. The unionized sector has been losing its market share and survives in the infrastructure, civil, and heavy construction where they are more competitive owing to higher skill and productivity. One fascinating account relates to the responses of employers and trade unions in Denmark, Germany, and Sweden to internationalization of capital and labor within the European Union. The traditional high-road construction industries of these countries are based on compromise and cooperation between trade unions and employers. Rules and regulations related to foreign workers and subcontractors, however, are supranational. They are potentially in conflict with the national-level social contract between employers and trade unions and, thereby, endanger the existing balance of power. The fourth theme is the Janus-like nature of the state, which is both the largest owner of construction projects and the dominant political and legal power center. As the owner, legislator/regulator/enforcer, and the conflict mediator and coordinator, the state can either promote or impede worker security, job protection, risk management, and skill formation at the workplace. The contributors to the volume provide a multitude of examples, both across the countries and over time within a country, of the state placed on either side of this divide. The overall trend has been one in which the state adopts policies and practices that contribute to the emergence of the informal labor market and subcontracting chains, weakening of unions, and deregulation or lax enforcement. Yet, other examples (e.g., Denmark, Sweden, the United States) demonstrate that at times the state plays a constructive role to sustain social partnerships between the employers and the unions and to promote training. Each chapter has dedicated sections on training and on health and safety. Shortage of skilled workers and the hazardous nature of construction work are constant refrains in each chapter. Rigorous training in the trades and higher health and safety standards are coincident with the presence of formal labor relations and employer-union partnerships. As the industry becomes more fragmented, subcontracting chains lengthen, and casual labor relations proliferate, incentives to engage in formal training and the enforcement of health and safety regulations vanish. The editors clearly endorse the high road over the low road in construction, that is, higher compensation and productivity, employment protection, safer workplace, innovation, and skill formation.

第三,作为促进改善工作条件不可或缺的因素,集体谈判正处于危险之中。尽管在大多数中高收入和高收入国家,工会是有弹性的行动者,但它们面临着来自外包和分包、移民工人以及雇主和政府敌意的挑战。工会部门的市场占有率一直在下降,但在基础设施、土木、重型建筑等因技术和生产率较高而更具竞争力的领域生存了下来。关于丹麦、德国和瑞典的雇主和工会对欧盟内部资本和劳动力国际化的反应,有一个引人入胜的描述。这些国家的传统公路建设行业是建立在工会和雇主之间妥协与合作的基础上的。但是,与外国工人和分包商有关的规章制度是超国家的。它们可能与雇主和工会之间的全国性社会契约相冲突,从而危及现有的权力平衡。第四个主题是国家的两面性,既是建设项目的最大所有者,又是主导的政治和法律权力中心。作为所有者、立法者/监管者/执行者、冲突调解者和协调者,国家既可以促进也可以阻碍工作场所的工人安全、工作保护、风险管理和技能形成。本书的作者提供了大量的例子,这些例子既包括不同国家的例子,也包括一个国家内部不同时期的例子,说明了处于这一鸿沟两侧的国家。总体趋势是,国家采取的政策和做法助长了非正规劳动力市场和分包链的出现,削弱了工会,放松了管制或执法不严。然而,其他例子(如丹麦、瑞典、美国)表明,国家有时在维持雇主和工会之间的社会伙伴关系和促进培训方面发挥建设性作用。每一章都有关于培训和健康与安全的专门章节。技术工人的短缺和建筑工作的危险性是每一章中不断重复的内容。严格的行业培训和更高的健康和安全标准与正式的劳资关系和雇主-工会伙伴关系相一致。随着行业变得更加分散,分包链延长,临时劳动关系激增,参与正式培训和执行健康和安全法规的动机消失了。编辑们明确表示,在建设中要走“高路”而不是“低路”,即更高的报酬和生产率、就业保护、更安全的工作场所、创新和技能形成。他们认为集体谈判协议和正式的工作关系是实现这一目标的基本手段。然而,本书所展示的国际经验并没有让读者对世界在这个方向上取得进展感到乐观。过去几十年的经济和政治风向使得低洼道路的建设更加普遍。当然,认为经济和政治力量的现状是既定的或不可改变的是错误的。社会冲突可能在未来沿着不同的路径发挥作用,这取决于参与者的战略和行动。为此,《建筑业的工作和劳资关系》实现了其意图“提出问题,以便在该行业工作或在该行业有影响力的人,或政策制定者、顾问或工人代表能够以批判和知情的眼光审查当前的做法,以鼓励变革”(第3-4页)。

Task Content and Job Losses in the Great Lockdown 大封锁时期的任务内容和失业情况

The author examines the short-term labor market effects of the COVID-19 pandemic (aka the Great Lockdown recession) in the United States. Findings show that the task content is an important predictor of job losses; jobs with a high non-routine cognitive content are especially well-protected, even if they are not teleworkable. Teleworkability matters more for low-paying jobs. The importance of task content, particularly for non-routine cognitive tasks, is strong even after controlling for demographics and for differential sector and location shocks, while effects persist in the medium run. Jobs subject to higher structural turnover rates were much more likely to be terminated, suggesting that easier-to-replace employees were at a particular disadvantage, even within sectors. At the same time, labor hoarding may occur for more valuable matches. Individuals in low-skilled jobs fared comparatively better in industries with a high share of high-skilled workers, suggesting complementarities across skill types.
作者研究了新冠肺炎大流行(又名大封锁衰退)对美国劳动力市场的短期影响。研究结果表明,任务内容是失业的重要预测因子;具有高度非常规认知内容的工作尤其受到很好的保护,即使它们不能远程操作。远程工作对低薪工作更重要。任务内容的重要性,特别是对于非常规的认知任务,即使在控制了人口统计数据和不同的部门和位置冲击之后,也是很强的,而影响在中期持续存在。结构性流动率较高的工作更有可能被终止,这表明更容易被取代的员工处于特别不利的地位,即使在部门内部也是如此。同时,劳动力囤积可能会发生在更有价值的匹配上。从事低技能工作的个人在拥有大量高技能工人的行业中表现相对较好,这表明各种技能类型之间存在互补性。

The authors are surprisingly optimistic, emphasizing the agency of bureaucrats and offering policy proposals at the end. These prescriptions, however, refer back to many of the difficulties of achieving social policy goals through procurement. For example, they call on unions and employer associations to be more involved in public procurement and to take advantage of the opportunities that exist for re-regulating work and improving some truly bad jobs. Unfortunately, German unions in most low-wage sectors have few members or resources to become involved in these complex administrative dynamics. The authors also call for innovative forms of enforcement, even though Germany already has some quite well-resourced enforcement entities (such as Finanzkontrolle Schwarzarbeit) that have faced severe documented difficulties monitoring standards in other low-wage sectors. They also recommend that municipalities consider insourcing, which would shift the task of social and ecological protection out of the market (i.e., the procurement function) and into the internal management of public-sector entities. Whether the public sector is willing and able to take up this task in Germany is a question beyond the scope of this book. Jaehrling and Stiehm show how public procurement professionals can become engaged in an institutional experiment for better work. But to what extent can the problems of lowwage work really be solved by managing the market better? Or in the context of German capitalism, with its strong tendencies toward marketization and liberalization, will social protection always be playing catch-up? Polanyi himself wrote that liberal economic order of 19thcentury Europe had been centrally planned, while social protection had come as an ad hoc response. In the 21st century this asymmetry is as important as ever.
两位作者出人意料地乐观,强调了官僚的作用,并在最后提出了政策建议。然而,这些处方又提到了通过采购实现社会政策目标的许多困难。例如,他们呼吁工会和雇主协会更多地参与公共采购,并利用现有的机会重新规范工作,改善一些真正糟糕的工作。不幸的是,德国大多数低工资行业的工会几乎没有成员或资源参与这些复杂的行政动态。作者还呼吁创新执法形式,尽管德国已经有一些资源相当充足的执法实体(如finanzcontrolle Schwarzarbeit),这些实体在其他低工资行业的标准监督方面面临严重的记录困难。他们还建议市政当局考虑内包,这将把社会和生态保护的任务从市场(即采购职能)转移到公共部门实体的内部管理。德国的公共部门是否愿意并且能够承担这一任务,已经超出了本书的讨论范围。Jaehrling和Stiehm展示了公共采购专业人员如何参与到一项制度性实验中,以获得更好的工作。但是,通过更好地管理市场,低工资工作的问题能在多大程度上真正得到解决?或者在市场化和自由化倾向强烈的德国资本主义背景下,社会保障是否总是在追赶?波兰尼自己写道,19世纪欧洲的自由经济秩序是中央计划的,而社会保护是一种临时应对措施。在21世纪,这种不对称与以往一样重要。

Book Review: Recoding Power: Tactics for Mobilizing Tech Workers, by Sidney A. Rothstein 书评:《重新编码的力量:动员技术工人的策略》,西德尼·a·罗斯坦著

to describe Chinese cities’ attempts to allow migrants on only an as-needed basis and to dispose of them as soon as they are no longer required; “inverted welfare state” to describe how authorities prioritize social benefits for those who need them least; “rendered surplus” to describe the condition of migrants forced out of urban centers; and “reproductive shock absorbers” to describe the role of teachers serving migrant children. These conceptual innovations would start to feel overwhelming and cluttering if it were not for the fact that the ideas are so intuitive and clearly explained and build on each other in such a logical manner. The state looms large in the book’s account. It is the state’s constant interventions, Friedman says, not simply the government ceding ground to market forces, as in some accounts, that “render” some people “surplus.” In fact, if some private employers had their way, especially those involved in China’s growing platform economy, migrants would be encouraged to remain in urban areas. The details of these official actions are carefully documented. For instance, although readers may be familiar with the broad outlines of the hukou system or with news stories like the demolition of migrant homes and businesses in the winter of 2017, they are less likely to know about how the education registration or xueji system works and the barriers it creates for families. Many will also be surprised at the frankness with which bureaucrats have spoken of “population control via education.” Note that the state’s efforts are not portrayed as resulting in a perfectly tuned system of control or even a stalemate with insurgent forces, as in Friedman’s previous book on Chinese labor unrest and trade union reforms, but are instead portrayed as deepening contradictions. Expelling migrants hurts important sectors of the urban economy. Unlike early capitalist industrializers in Europe and North America, with their colonies abroad acquired by genocide, China is geographically constrained in terms of its ability to offload its surplus workers. Nor does the expansion of Han Chinese into places like Xinjiang or the use of Chinese laborers on Belt and Road Initiative projects offer solutions to scale. And the place-of-birth line that the government draws with its hukou system undercuts attempts at building (Han) Chinese unity. Here, Urbanization of People could go further yet in its analysis. As with other accounts of contemporary China, the bulk of the volume is—perhaps necessarily—dedicated to explaining how the system works. It is only briefly in the introduction and at the end that the contradictions take center stage. Yet, like Toyota’s famous “just in time” production system from which Friedman draws his concept of “just in time urbanization,” the lack of slack in Chinese cities’ plans potentially makes them vulnerable to disruption. When auto parts plant workers went on strike en masse in China in 2010, just in time production meant that
描述中国城市只在需要时才允许外来人口入境,并在不再需要他们时立即处置他们的努力;“反向福利国家”(reverse welfare state),用来描述当局如何优先为最不需要福利的人提供社会福利;“过剩”用来描述被迫离开城市中心的移民的状况;用“生殖减震器”来形容教师为流动儿童服务的角色。如果不是因为这些想法是如此直观和清晰的解释,并且以这样一种逻辑方式相互建立,这些概念创新就会开始让人感到压倒性和混乱。在这本书的叙述中,国家显得很突出。弗里德曼说,是国家不断的干预,而不是像某些说法那样,政府向市场力量让步,“使”一些人“盈余”。事实上,如果一些私营雇主,特别是那些参与中国日益增长的平台经济的雇主,能够为所欲为,那么农民工将被鼓励留在城市地区。这些官方行动的细节都有详细的记录。例如,虽然读者可能熟悉户口制度的大致轮廓,或者熟悉2017年冬天农民工住房和企业被拆除的新闻报道,但他们不太可能知道教育登记或学籍制度是如何运作的,以及它给家庭带来的障碍。许多人还会对官员们坦率地谈到“通过教育控制人口”感到惊讶。值得注意的是,国家的努力并没有像弗里德曼之前关于中国劳工骚乱和工会改革的书中描述的那样,被描绘成一个完美的控制系统,甚至是与叛乱力量的僵局,而是被描绘成不断深化的矛盾。驱逐外来人口伤害了城市经济的重要部门。欧洲和北美早期的资本主义工业化国家通过种族灭绝获得了海外殖民地,与之不同的是,中国在释放过剩劳动力方面的能力受到地理上的限制。汉族人口向新疆等地的扩张,或者在“一带一路”项目中使用华工,也不能提供规模化的解决方案。政府用户口制度划定的出生地点界线削弱了建立(汉族)统一的努力。在这方面,《人的城市化》的分析还可以走得更远。和其他关于当代中国的描述一样,这本书的大部分篇幅——也许是必要的——都致力于解释这个体系是如何运作的。只是在引言和结尾处,矛盾才短暂地占据了中心位置。然而,就像丰田著名的“及时”生产系统一样,弗里德曼提出了“及时城市化”的概念,中国城市规划的缺乏松弛可能使它们容易受到干扰。2010年,当中国汽车零部件工厂的工人集体罢工时,及时生产意味着他们关闭了公司在中国的整个供应链。当上海这样的城市进入COVID封锁时,可以想象类似的动态,因为它所依赖的送货司机数量有限。书中描述的情况似乎也在不断变化。管理这些驱动程序的软件应用程序在十年前还不存在。对于任何一个政府来说,在这种变化中保持系统中各种各样、数量众多的部分和谐运转的挑战似乎都是艰巨的。尽管如此,随着中国进入经济增长放缓和政治控制收紧的时期,《人口城市化》一书为以下两方面提供了重要的指导:一是中国当局如何成功地解决了阻碍其他国家发展的困境,二是中国领导人在多大程度上破坏了公民关键阶层的愿望,并在此过程中潜在地加剧了中国未来的挑战。

Yet, like Toyota’s famous “just in time” production system from which Friedman draws his concept of “just in time urbanization,” the lack of slack in Chinese cities’ plans potentially makes them vulnerable to disruption. When auto parts plant workers went on strike en masse in China in 2010, just in time production meant that ","PeriodicalId":13504,"journal":{"name":"ILR Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2023-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76766188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Independent Contracting, Self-Employment, and Gig Work: Evidence from California Tax Data 独立承包、自营职业和零工:来自加州税收数据的证据

The authors use de-identified data from California personal income tax returns to measure the frequency and nature of independent contracting and self-employment in California. They identify this work by the presence of a Schedule C on the tax return and/or the receipt of a Form 1099 information return. The authors estimate that 14.4% of California workers aged 18 to 64 in tax year 2016 had some independent contracting or self-employment income and approximately half of this subgroup also had earnings from traditional W-2 jobs during the year. Only a small share (1.4%) of workers had earnings from online labor platforms (often called gig work). Workers with low earnings were significantly more likely to earn independent contracting or self-employment income and to rely primarily or exclusively on that income. The article explores the characteristics of workers engaging in independent contracting and self-employment and their distribution across family type, geography, and industry.
作者使用加州个人所得税申报表中的去识别数据来衡量加州独立承包和自营职业的频率和性质。他们通过纳税申报单上的附表C和/或1099表信息申报单的收据来识别这项工作。作者估计,在2016纳税年度,加州18岁至64岁的工人中,有14.4%的人有一些独立的合同或自营职业收入,其中大约一半的人在这一年中也有传统的W-2工作收入。只有一小部分(1.4%)的员工从在线劳动平台(通常被称为零工)获得收入。收入较低的工人更有可能赚取独立承包或自营职业收入,并主要或完全依赖这些收入。本文探讨了从事自主承包和自营职业的劳动者的特征及其在家庭类型、地域和行业中的分布。

Labor Migration as a Source of Institutional Change: Danish and Australian Construction Sectors Compared 劳动力迁移作为制度变迁的来源:丹麦和澳大利亚建筑业比较

In this article, the authors examine the role of labor immigration as a source of institutional change. They use a “most different systems” comparative case study analysis of the Danish and Australian construction sectors to examine the impact of increased labor migration on skill-sourcing practices in countries with distinct national skill formation and industrial relations institutions. Drawing on 73 interviews with industry stakeholders, the authors find that labor migration has produced liberalizing pressures in both Denmark and Australia, albeit in ways that differ from each other. The article contributes to comparative institutional scholarship by illustrating how labor migration can promote or support institutional change in a liberalizing direction by disincentivizing coordinated skill formation. Findings suggest that while national institutions mediate external pressures, such as labor migration, such pressures may affect the incentive structures that can either maintain or erode national institutions.
在这篇文章中,作者考察了劳工移民作为制度变革来源的作用。他们对丹麦和澳大利亚的建筑部门进行了“最不同的系统”比较案例研究分析,以研究在具有独特的国家技能形成和劳资关系制度的国家中,劳动力移徙增加对技能采购做法的影响。通过对行业利益相关者的73次采访,作者发现,劳动力迁移在丹麦和澳大利亚都产生了自由化的压力,尽管方式各不相同。这篇文章通过说明劳动力迁移如何通过抑制协调技能形成来促进或支持自由化方向的制度变革,为比较制度研究做出了贡献。研究结果表明,虽然国家制度调解了外部压力,如劳动力迁移,但这种压力可能会影响激励结构,从而维持或侵蚀国家制度。
