Abstract:Contradictory theoretical predictions concerning consequences of belonging to a minority in a workplace context are evaluated in this study. A two-year panel sample of 170.433 employees in 1928 Swedish workplaces is used to assess the impact of workplace sex and ethnic composition on its constituent members' voluntary (workplace shifts) and involuntary (unemployment) mobility out of the workplace. The findings show that immigrants have a lower propensity to leave workplaces with relatively many immigrants.
