Book Description
In response to a congressional request, GAO conducted a study of the effects of deregulation on trucking industry employment. The Motor Carrier Act substantially reduced Government control of trucking. The Act was designed to make entrance into the industry easier for new firms and stimulate price competition. A GAO analysis indicated that: (1) poor economic conditions, not regulatory reform, have been the likely cause of high unemployment in the trucking industry; (2) the Act brought about increased competition in the trucking industry and resulted in an overall increase in the number of trucking firms in the marketplace; and (3) increased industry competition accelerated a decline in Teamsters Union representation in the trucking industry. GAO also analyzed a Teamsters Union study which supported its testimony that deregulation was the principal cause of about 100,000 Teamsters losing their jobs in the trucking industry. GAO found the union's job loss estimate to be questionable because of deficiencies in the methodology of its study.

Book Description
Regulatory reform in the late 1970s and early 1980s vastly transformed the labor market for transportation workers. Most research in this area focuses on the effect of deregulation on the earnings of nonmanagement company workers in airline, trucking and rail. Deregulation of transportation industries, though, has had a broader effect on workers. For instance, deregulation also influences workers' hours worked per week, working conditions, worker safety, and a host of other labor issues. Deregulation might also influence the earnings of managers and self-employed workers in transportation industries. Examining these issues is valuable because such analysis provides a more complete assessment of labor market changes following the shift to a more market oriented business environment. Transportation Labor Issues and Regulatory Reform adds to the debate on deregulation's influence on transportation labor markets by presenting empirical evidence on an array of labor market outcomes in transportation industries. Contributions to this volume are categorized by their analysis on worker safety, working conditions and employment opportunities, and by their analysis on managerial and self-employed earnings
