A Detailed Look at Employment of Youths Aged 12 to 15 In: The Report on the Youth Labor Force, Revised, Chapter 3. Washington, DC: Department of Labor Report, 2000: pp. 14-29. Also: http://stats.bls.gov/opub/rylf/pdf/chapter3.pdf Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: U.S. Department of Labor Keyword(s): Current Population Survey (CPS) / CPS-Fertility Supplement; Demography; Employment, Youth; Family Characteristics; Labor Market Outcomes; Transition, School to Work This chapter examines employment patterns of youths using data from the first interview of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 (NLSY97). The NLSY97 was designed specifically to collect a wide range of information on youths in the United States. It provides insight into their labor market experiences, demographic and family characteristics, and participation in school-to-work programs, as well as many other aspects of their lives. The NLSY97 provides an in-depth focus on a cohort of youths who were between the ages of 12 and 16 on December 31, 1996. The first interview will be followed by annual interviews to develop longitudinal data. NLSY97 data complement data from the Current Population Survey (CPS), a monthly survey of households that provides data on trends over time but does not track specific age cohorts. CPS information on employment trends of youths aged 15 to 17 is described in Chapter 4. |
