Abstract
This paper examines the effects of industry concentration, plant size, and unionization on the wages of blue-collar manufacturing workers. The author points out that few previous wage studies have included all three of those variables or have employed data sufficiently detailed to test adequately their effect on wages. This study, using data primarily from the 1977 Quality of Employment Survey, demonstrates that concentration, plant size, and unionization all exercise significant and independent effects on wages.
