The American Work Force in the Eighties: New Problems and Policy Interests Require Improved Labor Force Data
In: The annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, Band 453, S. 123-129
Abstract
Problems of rising unemployment & diminishing productivity in the 1970s are examined in relation to demographic changes in the LF. The problems of energy shortages & inflation were compounded by the expansion of youth & the increases in F participation in the LF. Some improvement in the economic outlook for the 1980s is likely, as the national LF will grow more slowly. However, this advantage may be offset by increased competition among qualified workers for better positions & an accompanying dissatisfaction among workers whose talents & educations are not adequately used. Implications for labor policy are discussed. Modified HA.
