[IWS] BLS: YOUNGEST BABY BOOMERS' JOBS, EARNINGS, LABOR MARKET ACTIVITY--Survey [25 August 2006]]
by Eugene McElroy 28 Aug '06

IWS Documented News Service _______________________________ Institute for Workplace Studies-----------------Professor Samuel B. Bacharach School of Industrial & Labor Relations--------Director, Institute for Workplace Studies Cornell University 16 East 34th Street, 4th floor----------------------Stuart Basefsky New York, NY 10016-------------------------------Director, IWS News Bureau ________________________________________________________________________ Number of Jobs Held, Labor Market Activity, and Earnings Growth Among the Youngest Baby Boomers: Results From a Longitudinal Survey Summary [25 August 2006] http://www.bls.gov/news.release/nlsoy.toc.htm or http://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/nlsoy.pdf [full-text, 10 pages] The average person born in the later years of the baby boom held 10.5 jobs from age 18 to age 40, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor. Nearly three-fifths of these jobs were held from ages 18 to 25. These findings are from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979, a survey of 9,964 men and women who were ages 14 to 22 when first interviewed in 1979 and ages 39 to 48 when interviewed most recently in 2004-05. These respondents were born in the years 1957 to 1964, the later years of the "baby boom" that occurred in the United States from 1946 to 1964. The survey spans a quarter century and provides information on work and nonwork experiences, training, schooling, income and assets, health conditions, and other characteristics. The information provided by respondents, who were interviewed annually from 1979 to 1994 and biennially since 1994, can be considered representative of all men and women born in the late 1950s and early 1960s and living in the United States when the survey began in 1979. This release of the latest data from the longitudinal survey focuses on the number of jobs held, job duration, labor force participation, and earnings growth. Highlights from the survey include: --Individuals born from 1957 to 1964 held an average of 10.5 jobs from ages 18 to 40. These baby boomers held an average of 3.8 jobs while ages 18 to 21. The average fell to 3.0 jobs while ages 22 to 25 and to 2.0 jobs from ages 36 to 40. Jobs that span more than one age group were counted once in each age group, so the overall average number of jobs held from age 18 to age 40 is less than the sum of the number of jobs across the individual age groups. --Although job duration tends to be longer the older a worker is when starting the job, these baby boomers continued to have large numbers of short-duration jobs even as they approached middle age. Among jobs started by workers when they were ages 36 to 40, 36 percent ended in less than a year and 72 percent ended in fewer than 5 years. --The average person was employed during 77 percent of the weeks from age 18 to age 40. Generally, men spent a larger percent of weeks em- ployed than did women (85 versus 70 percent). Women spent much more time out of the labor force (26 percent of weeks) than did men (10 per- cent of weeks). --The annual percent growth in inflation-adjusted hourly earnings was fastest when workers were in their late teens and early twenties. Growth rates in earnings generally were higher for college graduates than for workers with less education. AND MUCH MORE...including TABLES.... -- Eugene McElroy Rutgers University School of Management and Labor Relations Library 50 Labor Center Way New Brunswick, New Jersey 08901 tel: 732-932-9513 ******** Desconfiem e se afastem dos individuos que adulam os poderosos e pisoteiam os desprotegidos.
