and Dario Pozzoli ()
Abstract: High-performance work practices are frequently considered
to have positive e ects on corporate performance, but what do they do for
employees? After showing that organizational innovation is indeed
positively associated with rm performance, we investigate whether
high-involvement work practices are associ- ated with higher wages, changes
in wage inequality and workforce composition, using data from a survey
directed at Danish private sector rms matched with linked employer-employee
data. We also examine whether the relationship be- tween high-involvement
work practices and employee outcomes is a ected by the industrial relations
context
