Book Wage Losses of Displaced Workers in the 1990s

Download or read book Wage Losses of Displaced Workers in the 1990s written by Robert F. Schoeni and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The large-scale downsizings of the 1990s have renewed interest in the wage losses of displaced workers. This study uses administrative data to follow 833,004 workers in California between 1989 and 1994, providing estimates of the extent of wage losses associated with the recent downsizings. Patterns of wage loss that are similar to those found in studies using different data for different regions and periods are documented. However, the authors do not find that wages decline substantially prior to displacement, which has been found in previous research. The study also finds that wage losses: i) vary substantially among workers; ii) differ by the period of displacement; iii) are related to the economic conditions at the time of displacement; iv) vary by firm size, industry of new employment, and the number of subsequent separations; v) are similar within versus across firms; and vi) in the long-run are 17 to 25 percent. The effects on quarterly versus hourly wages are also explored.

Book Sources of Displaced Workers  Long Term Earnings Losses

Download or read book Sources of Displaced Workers Long Term Earnings Losses written by Marta Lachowska and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. 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.

Book The Plight of Older Workers

Download or read book The Plight of Older Workers written by Isabel Baumann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book examines the economic, social, and psychological consequences of manufacturing plant closure at the individual level. Using an original data set of over 1,200 workers from Switzerland who lost their manufacturing jobs after the financial crisis of 2008, the author analyzes the determinants of reemployment, the sector of reemployment, and the change in wages over a two year period. In addition, coverage also explores how plant closure affects the social relationship between a displaced worker and his or her significant other, which includes a discussion of the coping strategies on the household level as well as how changes in a worker's social and occupational life affects overall satisfaction. Readers will discover that the burden of structural change disproportionately falls on the shoulders of workers aged 55 and older who often face substantial barriers when trying to return to employment. A larger portion of this group experience long-term unemployment and those who do manage to find a new job often suffer disproportionate wage loss. This result is intriguing in the context of the current demographic change and contradicts the common assumption that young and low-qualified individuals are at greatest risk of unemployment. Advanced age—and not low education—appears to be the primary obstacle to workers finding job satisfaction after being laid off because of market conditions.

Book Worker Displacement During the Transition  Experience from Slovenia

Download or read book Worker Displacement During the Transition Experience from Slovenia written by Milan Vodopivec and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: April 1995 At 3 to 4 percent a year, the displacement rate for the Slovenian labor force in 1990- 93 was higher than that for the North American labor force during a major recession in the 1980s. But patterns of displacement were similar. Unusually rich administrative data sets covering both firms and workers enabled Orazem, Vodopivec, and Wu to study displacement in Slovenia during 1987 - 93. They describe displacement trends and the characteristics of displaced workers, comparing them to those in North America during a major recession. They analyze the determinants of displacement in the framework of labor turnover, and explore factors associated with postdisplacement wage losses. Among their findings: * A comparison of displacement in Slovenia in 1990 - 93 and in North America during the recession of the early 1980s shows striking similarities in the incidence of displacement by gender and industry, as well as in reemployment paths. * Workers try to avoid displacement both by switching to another job and by leaving the labor force. Before becoming displaced, they also take wage cuts. * Both the probability of displacement and the probability of job quits are negatively correlated with tenure. * Women are no more likely to be displaced than men, and face smaller postdisplacement wage losses. Non-Slovenians are no more likely to be displaced than Slovenians, and face equal wage losses. * Firm characteristics matter. The smaller and less profitable the firm, the greater the likelihood of both displacement and job-switching. Restructuring subsidies that lower firm layoff costs increase the number of firm- and worker-initiated transitions. * About half the displaced workers who find new jobs change occupations and about a third change industry. * Only about a third of workers displaced in 1990 had found a job by the end of 1991. Surprisingly, for more than 68 percent of them, wage growth exceeded the median wage growth in the economy (17 percent). Those not reemployed seem to be paying a heavy toll: Not only do they stay unemployed much longer, but they face much lower reemployment wages. * As studies of displacement in the United States also show, greater job experience is associated with heavier postdisplacement wage losses. The magnitude of those losses is consistent with findings about U.S. wage losses. This paper -- a product of the Transition Economics Division, Policy Research Department -- is part of a larger effort in the department to investigate how labor markets work during the transition. The study was funded by the Bank's Research Support Budget under the research project Labor Market Dynamics during the Transition of a Socialist Economy (RPO 677-20).

Book The Disposable Work Force

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 249 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.
