Zusammenfassung: 
Institutions representing the workers' voice have long been a contentious topic in the economic literature. Against a backdrop of inconclusive evidence and limited use of credible identification strategies, we study the impact of the 2015 policy change that introduced mandatory board-level employee representation in firms with over 1,000 employees in France. Using rich linked employer-employee data and two empirical strategies-a difference-in-differences and a difference-in-discontinuity approach-we examine how the reform affected firms and workers. Our results show a positive impact on job quality, with no evidence of adverse effects on firm performance, and heterogeneous effects between manufacturing and service sectors.
