| Abstract: | This article attempts to establish the main determinants of an employee's involvement in trade unionism, and to explain the male/female differential in union participation. Women, especially part-time workers, are less likely to participate in union meetings than men, which seems largely attributable to women's lower favourability to trade unions, altough women are as likely as men to believe in the principles of trade unionism. |
