The Wage Effects of Cumulative Job Mobility Industrial and Labor Relations Review 49,1 (October 1995): 121-137. Also: http://www.jstor.org/stable/2524916 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Cornell University Press Keyword(s): Industrial Training; Layoffs; Quits; Schooling; Skills; Training; Wage Differentials; Wage Effects; Wage Levels This analysis of data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth shows that cumulative job mobility had statistically significant effects on wages in the years 1979-88. The direction of the wage effects (positive or negative) and their magnitude varied depending on the type of cumulative mobility examined: employee-initiated versus employer-initiated separations, economic versus family-related quits, layoffs versus discharges. The results also indicate that although men and women had different mobility histories--men, for example, had been discharged more often than women, and women had quit for family-related reasons more often than men--the wage effects of each type of cumulative mobility (economic quits, family-related quits, layoffs, and discharges) were similar for men and women. |
