Participation, Productivity, and the Firm's Environment
Abstract
While increasing worker participation in decision making can often increase productivity, it remains relatively rare in the United States. This article discusses how the product, labor, and capital market conditions that firms face can work against participatory firms and why the free market may provide too little encouragement for worker participation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
