Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We use employer-employee matched administrative data from Ohio to study the role of firm pay premiums in explaining the large, persistent earnings losses of displaced workers. We estimate that earnings for displaced workers from the mid-2000s are depressed by 22 percent after four years, consistent with prior work. Drawing upon empirical approaches from the displaced worker and firm heterogeneity literature, we then estimate how much of this earnings loss can be explained by the forfeiture of a favorable employer-specific pay premium. Our preferred estimate attributes one quarter (24 percent) of long-run earnings deficits to lost firm pay premiums. Such firm rents explain up to half the earnings deficits for those laid off from manufacturing firms and employers with particularly generous pay policies. We test for sensitivity to different samples from which we derive firm specific-pay premiums and definitions of displacement. Our estimates persist in a narrow range between 16 and 24 percent for the share explained by firm rents, adding to the evidence that firm rents do not explain the majority of earnings or wage losses sustained by displaced workers in the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Displacement-related losses are estimated using NLSY79 data that span the years 1979-2000. The typical displaced worker faces losses of $34,065 during the period four years prior through five years following displacement. Proportionally, this represents a 10.8 percent loss compared to earnings of similar non-displaced workers over the period. Considerable variation in losses is reported across worker types. Union, male and more mature workers suffer greater losses, respectively, than do their non-union, female and younger counterparts. College graduates and high school dropouts are found to suffer lower losses compared to high school diploma holders and those who completed some college.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We estimate the earnings losses of a cohort of workers displaced during the Great Recession and decompose those long-term losses into components attributable to fewer work hours and to reduced hourly wage rates. We also examine the extent to which the reduced earnings, work hours, and wages of these displaced workers can be attributed to factors specific to pre- and post-displacement employers; that is, to employer-specific fixed effects. The analysis is based on employer-employee linked panel data from Washington State assembled from 2002-2014 administrative wage and unemployment insurance (UI) records.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study estimates the earnings losses of workers who lose their jobs in a plant closing. A unique data set was used: Social Security earnings records of over 9,000 workers employed in plants that actually closed. Separate estimates are made for workers by age and sex and the effects on losses of economic and demographic variables are also estimated. Alternative methodologies are discussed and used to estimate losses of workers who never work after the plant closing. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A particularly sensitive current policy issue is the effect of changes in tariffs and quotas on employment and earnings. This study examines empirically some of the effects of a permanent labor displacement which might result from changes in international trade policy. Specifically, it presents estimates of how job displacement would change the long-term earnings of workers in 11 industries, and relates the findings to industry characteristics so that they can be projected to industries not directly studied. This study was designed to assist in determining industries in which trade liberalization would impose large losses on workers. Results show that average prime age male workers suffer substantial losses of earnings in industries where the normal rate of labor turnover is low and prime age males make up a high percentage of the total labor force. These industries also tend to be high wage industries. Displacement from the auto and steel industries is estimated to reduce earnings over a 6 year period by about 24%, and by almost as much in several other high wage industries. The estimated loss in low wage industries was much smaller, averaging about 5%, in some cases, such as cotton weaving, no appreciable loss could be detected.

Book excerpt: "What is the magnitude of earnings losses that Canadian workers suffer several years after being displaced? The answer to this question is currently unknown. Several of the previous studies are based on U.S. data and have shown that, even five years after displacement, displaced workers still suffer substantial earnings losses. However, most of the evidence offered is based either on a sub-sample of high-tenure workers in a specific region or on relatively small samples drawn from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics. Furthermore, the evidence presented is not recent since it covers either the early to mid-1980s or the early 1990s. Canadian studies of worker displacement have compared pre-displacement wages to wages observed shortly after displacement but have been unable to quantify the magnitude of the earnings losses suffered several years after displacement. The goal of this paper is to fill this gap and to quantify the earnings losses experienced up to five years after displacement by Canadian workers who lost their job during the late 1980s and the 1990s as a result of firm closures or mass layoffs. To do so, we take advantage of Statistics Canada's Longitudinal Worker File, a unique administrative data set that tracks a large (10%) sample of Canadian workers throughout the 1983 to 2002 period."--Unedited text from document.

Download or read book Earnings Loss Due to Displacement written by Louis Jacobson and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents findings, drawn from a number of studies, about earnings losses due to displacement. Losses are calculated by comparing the earnings of workers after they were displaced, with the earnings of similar workers, in similar conditions, who were not displaced. To measure the effects, it is necessary to distinguish displaced workers from those who left their jobs, voluntarily, either to take other jobs or to withdraw from the labor force. The findings are that industries in which losses are large have three characteristics in common: workers are mostly male, the labor force is heavily unionized, and voluntary labor turnover is low. Within an industry, losses are generally largest among workers whose earnings have begun to grow rapidly. Losses are higher if workers are displaced into small labor markets or into labor markets where unemployment is already high. Among female workers, labor force withdrawal is more common than among males. As a result, findings about how displacement affects females are inconclusive.

Download or read book The Disposable Work Force written by Thomas Moore and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty-first century has witnessed a transformation of the organization, opportunities, and terms of work. Downsizing, restructuring, and outsourcing are the forces altering employment relationships throughout the work force. Those who tend to see the future in a positive light view the evolving role between employer and employee as empowering for the individual. This book examines the consequences of economic instability due to job loss and the displacement of millions of workers. It draws upon case studies of worker displacement as well as national labor force surveys. Thomas S. Moore finds that consequences of economic instability are productivity slowdown, increased disparities in earnings and income, and higher average unemployment. He assesses the extent of job loss nationwide, its costs to the individuals directly affected, and the way in which the incidence of displacement and earnings loss has shifted over time. Although drawn from an earlier period, the data have an obvious relevance to today's labor markets. Moore argues for an employment and training system that gives employers an incentive to invest in the skills of their employees. Federally funded training programs have not improved the earning ability of displaced and disadvantaged workers, and state-sponsored programs tend to exclude those most in need of assistance. Moore suggests direct employer investment in the general skills of employees. Initially published in a different economic downturn, this continues to be a must read book for all economists, sociologists, and policymakers.
