由于COVID-19疫情蔓延导致封城，失业率急剧上升。封锁的负面影响在低学历工人中比高学历工人更明显。由于亚裔美国人比任何其他种族群体更有可能拥有学士或更高学位，因此预计他们将相对不受就业率下降的影响，除非封锁的不利影响对亚裔美国人更为不利。利用当前人口调查的面板方面-合并的离职轮换组，我们检查了在工作状态的变化之前和之后的封锁和重新开放的月份之间。实证结果发现，亚裔美国人受到封锁的负面影响比任何其他种族群体，净教育，移民身份和其他协变量。令人惊讶的是，封锁的负面影响完全集中在受教育程度较低的亚裔美国人身上。无论性别如何，受教育程度较低的亚裔美国人比同等教育程度的白人更有可能失去就业机会，并且在重新开放的几个月内重新就业的可能性也不大。其他受教育程度较低的少数民族在工作状态方面的减少并不比白人多，净协变量。受过高等教育的亚裔美国人的就业与受过同等教育的白人一样受到封锁的影响。
The unemployment rate has sharply increased as a result of the lockdown associated with the spread of COVID-19. The negative effect of the lockdown is more conspicuous among the less-educated workers than the highly-educated workers. Because Asian Americans are more likely to have a bachelor or higher degree than any other racial group, they are expected to be relatively immune to the drop in employment unless the detrimental impact of the lockdown is severer for Asian Americans. Exploiting the panel aspect of the Current Population Survey – Merged Outgoing Rotation Group, we examine the changes in At-work status before and after the lockdown and between the lockdown and months of the reopening. The empirical results uncover that Asian Americans are more negatively affected by the lockdown than any other racial group, net of education, immigration status, and other covariates. Surprisingly, the negative impact of the lockdown is entirely concentrated on less-educated Asian Americans. Regardless of gender, less-educated Asian Americans are substantially more likely to lose employment than equally educated Whites and are not more likely to regain employment during the reopening months. Other less-educated racial minorities do not experience more reduction in At-work status than Whites, net of covariates. Highly-educated Asian Americans’ employment is equally affected by the lockdown with equally educated Whites.
