Editorial Reviews
Review
“The work is clearly written, very informative, and...demonstrates that considerable time, effort, and expertise went into its creation. Each chapter in and of itself is interesting to read....The book functions best as a reference work to provide a set of statistics, demongraphics, and facts, to highlight trends of the past and present, and for defining terms, concepts, and others' theories....one can certainly be informed and enlightened by by reading this work.”–
“The book reaches its goals, providing a coherent portrait of the American workforce and a discussion of what we know, and by implication what we need to learn, about it.”–
Book Description
The United States labor force is examined in detail in this comprehensive study. The history and current makeup of the labor force is revealed and issues and trends are investigated. The book begins with a discussion of the development of the workforce, the impact of immigration, the rise of nontraditional work arrangements, the underground economy, and demographics. Education is examined in part two. Career choices, unions, wage determination, women and minority issues, and unemployment are considered in later chapters. It concludes with a look at the government's role in the workforce, including welfare, social insurance, and health care and shows how these programs impact both employer and worker behavior. This book is a great resource for executives, human resource professionals, researchers, policy makers, and students.
