Lessons for Welfare Reform: An Analysis of the AFDC Caseload and Past Welfare-to-Work Programs Kalamazoo, MI: Upjohn Institute for Employment Research, 1997 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research Keyword(s): Aid for Families with Dependent Children (AFDC); Benefits; Current Population Survey (CPS) / CPS-Fertility Supplement; Earnings; Income; Labor Force Participation; Welfare; Work Experience Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Using CPS and NLSY data, O'Neill and O'Neill explore patterns of welfare use, and focus on the duration of welfare participation both in single episode and multiple spells. Here they also examine correlates of short-term and long-term participation. Using personal characteristics as their criteria, the authors identify the population groups most likely to encounter problems with the newly-imposed time limits on benefits. They also identify factors associated with work experience, earnings and incomes of those who exited welfare, and potential market earnings of those who remain on welfare. |

The Declining Importance of Race and Gender in the Labor Market: The Role of Employment Discrimination Policies Washington, DC: AEI Press, 2012 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research Keyword(s): Discrimination; Discrimination, Employer; Discrimination, Racial/Ethnic; Discrimination, Sex; Gender Attitudes/Roles; Labor Force Participation; Legislation; Racial Differences; Racial Equality/Inequality; Wage Gap Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. The Declining Importance of Race and Gender in the Labor Market provides historical background on employment discrimination and wage discrepancies in the United States and on government efforts to address employment discrimination. It examines the two federal institutions tasked with enforcing Title VII and the 1964 Civil Rights Act: the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP). It also provides a quantitative analysis of racial and gender wage gaps and seeks to determine what role, if any, the EEOC and the OFCCP had in narrowing these gaps over time and analyzes the data to determine the extent of employment discrimination today. |
