流离失所工人调查的结果表明,转移后转换行业的工资成本与转移前的工作经验和任期措施密切相关。工人显然因某些技能而得到补偿,这些技能既不完全是一般性的,也不完全是公司特有的,而是针对其行业或工种的。此外,在流离失所的工人谁找到新的工作,在他们的predisplacement行业,postdisplacement返回到predisplacement工作任期类似的截面估计返回到目前的资历。这表明,公司的具体因素可能有助于观察到的斜坡的工资任期概况。
Results from the Displaced Worker Surveys show that the wage cost of switching industries following displacement is strongly correlated with predisplacement measures of both work experience and tenure. Workers apparently receive compensation for some skills that are neither completely general nor firm-specific but rather specific to their industry or line of work. Further, among displaced workers who find new jobs in their predisplacement industry, postdisplacement returns to predisplacement job tenure resemble cross-section estimates of the returns to current seniority. This suggests that firm-specific factors may contribute little to the observed slope of wage tenure profiles.
