Stan De SpiegelaereMonopolies are not good.
But what about monopsonies where a (couple of) firm(s) is/are the only one(s) hiring a certain part of the labour market?
And what could we be do about it?
Estimates by
@OECD
show that roughly 10% of the employees face a highly concentrated (and thus monopsonic) labour market.
That's a considerable amount of workers!

The Institute for Research on Poverty published this talk by David Card in 2013 called
Two things that I really liked about this:
- He highlights the importance of looking at the workplace (firms), as he and many others did in the next years, to understand labour market inequalities.
- He acknowledges that sociologists and anthropologists have built the bases of what economists would study later, especially (but not only) in terms of gender and racial inequalities.

Thanks to collective action, Inditex workers in Galicia (Spain) will get a wage increase of 382€ per month. This mostly concerns women working as shop assistants, who wanted to have similar conditions than the warehouse workers: https://elpais.com/espana/galicia/2022-12-22/las-dependientas-de-inditex-desconvocan-la-huelga-al-llegar-a-un-preacuerdo-con-la-empresa-382-euros-mas-al-mes.html?outputType=amp
