Post-accession migration in construction and trade union responses in Denmark, Norway and the UK

Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskriftTidsskriftartikelfagfællebedømt

The article compares trade union responses in Denmark, Norway and the UK to the arrival of construction workers from the new EU member states. Organizing has been seen as a crucial means to avoid low-wage competition and social dumping. We analyse how the unions developed strategies for recruiting migrants, the novelty of their approaches and the results in terms of membership.
