In this study we analyse the conflict pattern from worker representatives and the relation to trust in management and union support. The hypotheses are tested in a quantitative study of 719 representatives.

Dos posibles explicaciones para esta visión del conflicto en España son la baja confianza entre los sindicatos y la patronal, y la larga tradición de confrontación en las relaciones laborales. En este estudio analizamos el patrón del conflicto desde el punto de vista de los representantes de los trabajadores, la relación de confianza con la patronal y el apoyo de los sindicatos. Las hipótesis están contrastadas con un estudio cuantitativo de 719 representantes. Los resultados muestran que a) los representantes usan un estilo de conflicto competitivo; b) la confianza está negativamente relacionada con este estilo de conflicto; y c) el apoyo de los sindicatos está positivamente relacionada con este estilo. Exploramos cómo la cultura social y la tradición histórica de las relaciones laborales explican estas relaciones.Comisión Europea VS/2010/0376Ministerio de Ciencia PSI 2008/00503Ministerio de Ciencia PSI2008-00502Universitat Rovira i VirgiliPsicología Social2012info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/11441/48919https://doi.org/10.17345/rio9reponame:idUS.
