Unions and Technology Adoption: A Qualitative Analysis of the Use of Real-Time Control Systems in U.S. Coal Firms.
Part of a special section on technological change and employment conditions in traditionally heavily unionized industries. The writers present a qualitative analysis of the impact of unionization on the adoption of a new technology in coal mining, specifically, the application of real-time control...

The writers present a qualitative analysis of the impact of unionization on the adoption of a new technology in coal mining, specifically, the application of real-time control systems technology to automated mining engineering equipment. Their findings reveal that unions may represent a barrier to the adoption and use of new technologies, implying that further scrutiny of the relationship between union activity and technological change is required. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
