Abstract

Labor and management relation rises as a key task to solve in order to ensure corporate's sustainable competitiveness in a convergence global environment. The aim of this study is to examine the mediation effect of labor union participation behavior in the effect of convergence-type labor-management conflict on the turnover intention. Data was collected from 491 employees who were employed in medium and small enterprises in Daejeon, Chungcheongnam-do and Chungcheongbuk-do. The results are as follows. Firstly, labor-management conflict had positive (+) effect on labor union participation behavior. Secondly, labor union participation behavior had negative (-) effect on turnover intention. Thirdly, labor union participation behavior had mediating role in the relation between labor-management conflict and turnover intention. Therefore, it is necessary to respond profit and desire of the labor union members by union leaders and to enhance necessity and value of the labor union continually.

노사관계는 향후 융복합 글로벌환경에서 기업들이 지속적인 경쟁력을 확보하기 위해 반드시 풀고 가야할 핵심과제로 부각되고 있다. 본 연구는 융복합형 노사갈등이 이직의도에 미치는 영향에 있어서 노조참여행동의 매개효과 검증해 보고자 하는데 연구의 목적을 두었다. 자료의 수집은 대전시, 충청남 북도에 위치한 중소기업의 종업원 491명을 대상으로 조사하였다. 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 노사갈등이 노조참여행동에 정(+)에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 노조참여행동은 이직의도에 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 노조참여행동은 노사갈등과 이직의도와의 관계에서 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 노조지도부가 노조원들의 이익과 욕구에 민감히 반응하고 이를 통하여 노조의 필요성과 가치를 지속적으로 제고시키기 위한 노력이 필요하다.
