Note(s): The estimating equation regresses the log hourly-wage changes (Column 1), log weekly-wage changes (Column 3), and log usual-work-hours-per-week changes (Column 5) before and after displacement on workers' demographics, education attainment, job tenure, indicator for expected to be recalled at layoff and interaction terms with tenure group, contract work indicator, union status transition, firm-size transition, and industry and occupation transition. Sample weights are used to provide estimates for the entire population. Standard errors account for complex survey design (stratification, clustering, and non-response).
