Rones, Philip L. su: Economic seasonal variations Industries Employment United States sug: subj: United States Economic seasonal variations Industries Employment ab: Seasonal employment declined significantly between 1960 and 1990. The trend toward year-round employment affected all sectors of private industry and most demographic groups, especially women. Reasons for the change include new technologies that reduce the need for seasonal labor, increased use of part-time workers, a population shift toward more temperate climates, workers' growing preference for year-round work, and declining birth rates, which have curtailed mothers' child care responsibilities and reduced the relative number of young workers who are only available at certain times because of school commitments. The writers discuss the benefits of year-round employment for workers and employers and examine the trend toward year-round work in specific demographic groups and in the construction, nondurable goods manufacturing, service, and retail trade industries. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
