Abstract
► This paper models wage bargaining in the presence of a public transfer to unions. ► The optimal transfer is inversely related with the real wage of unions' members. ► It restores the perfectly competitive level of employment with zero inflation. ► It can be implemented through an appropriately defined inflation target. ► The inflation target must be linked to wage inflation.
