本文使用1992-95年和2000-03年的季度劳动力调查数据来研究族裔失业和经济活动的变化。其目的是将1990年代失业率相对较高的时期与2000年代失业率较低的时期进行比较。虽然少数民族的失业情况有所改善，但白人和非白人失业之间的差异只有一半可以归因于观察到的特征的差异。这表明，对大多数少数民族来说，仍然存在大量无法解释的歧视因素。对于巴基斯坦/孟加拉国男性来说，这一差距更大，这意味着无法解释的种族差异正在扩大。版权所有布莱克威尔出版有限公司和董事会的经济研究公报，2005年。
This article uses data from the Quarterly Labour Force Survey for 1992-95 and 2000-03 to examine changes in ethnic unemployment and economic activity. The intention was to compare the relatively high unemployment era of the 1990s with the lower unemployment era of the 2000s. Although the ethnic minority unemployment situation has improved, only half of the difference between white and non-white unemployment can be attributed to differences in observed characteristics. This suggests that a large unexplained discriminatory element still exists for most ethnic minorities. This has become larger for Pakistani/Bangladeshi men, implying a widening of the unexplained ethnic differential.
