This book considers key assumptions underlying research on women
and enterprise bargaining, in light of unique qualitative data from
the banking sector. Previous research in this field has argued that
women workers will approach enterprise bargaining in a distinctly
different manner to men workers. A drawback associated with much of
this research however, has been its sole emphasis on women workers,
without a concurrent analysis of 'male' approaches to bargaining or
indeed, a refined definition of what would constitute 'male'
bargaining. This book positions enterprise bargaining preferences
in the context of literature on narrative identities. Four
distinctly different narrative identities are found among men and
women managers - the bureaucratic career narrative, diplomatic,
classic market narrative and institutional market narrative. In
particular, acuity of risk and strategies to minimise risk are
handled differently by each of the narrative identities.
