What styles of engagement do they want with employers?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e* What institutional models are more successful in giving workers the voice they seek at workplaces? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e* What can unions, employers, and public policy makers learn from these studies of representation and influence? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe research is based largely on surveys that were conducted as a follow-up to the influential Worker Representation and Participation Survey (WRPS) reported in \u003ci\u003eWhat Workers Want\u003c\/i\u003e, coauthored by Richard B.
