1 Paid workers aged 25 to 54 and employed in their main job in December 1986 or December 1997. 2 The dependent variable is the change in the percentage of workers covered by an RPP in a given industry over the 1986 to 1997 period. Note: In both regressions, the union status variable is statistically significant at the 5% level (two-tailed test).
