Abstract:Using a cross-national survey, this study explores employee 'voice' in workplace health and safety in three Baltic New Member States of the European Union (EU). Based on the data, unresolved problems of voice in the context of rather poor working environments are pointed to. These present opportunities for collective renewal by trade unions, however paradoxically more likely to be addressed by employers in the context of significant labour shortages created by a post-EU accession labour 'exit'.
