- W2571411863 abstract "textabstractAbstract: Some commentators have suggested that employers who modernise their factoryoperations will become dependent on the skills and attitudes of their employees. Others gobeyond this and suggest that workers in modernised firms will be persuaded to go 'beyondcontract' due to the emergence of a strong and direct form of attachment to their employer.Moreover, with 'us and them' attitudes removed, it is uncertain what effect this may have onworkers' attitudes to the union. This paper puts these debates about factory modernisationand workers' attitudes to the employer and the union to the test using detailed data from theBrazilian white goods industry during the 1990s.The research suggests the following in respect to this 'axis of allegiance'. First,workers can be persuaded to think in terms of an effort bargain which includes issuesbeyond just remuneration. Many employees are also taking a more inward-looking, 'employerpositive' approach. However, their degree of attachment to the modernised firm is bothlimited and contingent on future, expected benefits.Secondly, in terms of the worker-union relation, the cynicism of Brazilian workers tounions may have been heightened by the policies of the modernising firm. While part of thisresult may be due to the modernising firms' selection policies, the union's 'electorate' mayalso have shifted its priorities. Despite this, many workers would still like unions to have anactive and independent role. Yet this is dependent on union policies being directed towardsthe promotion of worker's key (and often new) workplace concerns.Finally, while these results are influenced by the Brazilian context they do raisequestions about the attitudinal and behavioural underpinnings of modernisation in anyenvironment. As long as employers act to minimise the risk to which they may become moredependent on workers, employee behaviour will, at best, only appear to indicate that theyhave more allegiance to the employer. Moreover, workers' concerns about workplacemodernisation policies suggest that unions may not necessarily become more ineffectual andirrelevant." @default.
