dc.description.abstractThis paper explores the latent power of Maltese trade unions in the private sector by reviewing the presence of collective agreements in force in 2008. The study adopts a similar methodology to one published in Bank of Valletta Review in 1996, based on 1995 data. Over this 13-year period, the number of private sector collective agreements in force has dropped from 212 to 168; the number of full-time, private sector employees covered by collective agreements is slightly higher (22,879 as against 22,128); but the proportion of the same employees covered by collective agreements is lower by 6.2 percentage points (from 32.9% to 26.7%). The data invites a sober reflection on the power of trade unions in contemporary society.en_GB
