| Tiivistelmä: | A new form of evidence is presented supporting the hypothesis that job opportunities decline with age. Segregation curves computed from the January 1983 Current Population Survey reveal that newly hired old workers tend to be clustered in a smaller set of industries and occupations than both newly hired young workers and all old workers. The evidence presented here adds to the weight of the evidence gained from other studies indicating that old workers reap smaller wage improvements than young ones in case of job changes, they are less likely to move from unemployment to employment, and that prior to legislative prohibitions, employers often imposed upper age limitations on new hires. |
