Résumé

Cet article analyse l'impact de la réglementation des négociations collectives sur le chômage et la croissance dans un modèle à générations imbriquées avec concurrence imparfaite. La réglementation est appréhendée à partir de deux critères : le type de variable devant être négocié (salaire, emploi, coefficient de partage du profit, investissement) et la possibilité de renégocier les conventions collectives à des dates non déterminées préalablement. L'aménagement de la possibilité de renégocier à des dates non fixées entraîne toujours une augmentation du chômage et une diminution de la croissance. Augmenter le nombre de variables négociables induit un accroissement du chômage, mais peut avoir des conséquences positives sur la croissance.

Summary

Summary

In this paper are studied the consequences of different wage bargaining rules on employment and growth in an overlapping generations model with imperfect competition. The rules are defined by two characteristics: the type of variable that must be negotiated (wage, employment, profit-share, investment), and the possibility or the impossibility to renegotiate the contracts at any date. Renegotiations raise the unemployment rate and decrease the growth rate. An increase in the number of variables that must be negotiated always increases the unemployment rate, but may have positive effects on the growth rate.
