| Abstract: | The labour force participation rate of American women has risen steadily in the last decades. The purpose is to determine whether a significant number of women work continuously during their early careers, and how these women compare to men in terms of their interfirm mobility and earnings. All respondents of the survey, the data were taken from, were at the beginning between ages 14 and 24. The sample consisted of 4490 women and 4600 men, and the survey was restricted to the postschool portion of each respondent's panel. Statistical data are presented in tabular forms of labour force participation, job turnover, and wage differentials. The findings are analyzed thoroughly. |
