The Influence of Trade Unions on the Welfare of Production Workers in East Java

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of trade unions on the welfare of production workers in East Java. In this study as the independent variable is the trade union and the dependent variable is the welfare of production workers. 159 samples taken from five different companies located in five districts/cities in East Java The analysis conducted in this study include the testing of research instruments, simple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing. The analysis showed a simple determination coefficient R square = 0.222 with a probability value sig = 0.000. because the probability is smaller than the test level research (Sig .05), then Ho is rejected and Ha accepted which means that the value of the coefficient of determination R square = 0.222 significantly, meaning that a simple linear regression model that formed a decent used to explain the effect of trade union to production workers' welfare variable, it can be concluded that the simple linear regression model can only explain 22.2% influence union variable to production labor welfare in East Java variable. From the results of simple linear regression analysis regression coefficient b1 = 0658 which has a probability of Sig. = 0.000. because the probability is smaller than the test level research (Sig .05), then Ho is rejected and Ha accepted, which means that the value of the regression coefficient b1 = 0.658 means significant Labor unions variable have a positive impact on the welfare production workers variable.
