Description
The Handbook of U.S. Labor Statistics is recognized as an authoritative resource on the U.S. labor force. It continues and enhances the Bureau of Labor Statistics's (BLS) discontinued publication, Labor Statistics. It allows the user to understand recent developments as well as to compare today's economy with that of the past.
This publication includes several tables throughout the book examining the extensive effect that coronavirus (COVID-19) had on the labor market throughout 2020. A chapter titled "The Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) on the Labor Force" includes new information on hazard pay, safety measures businesses enforced during the pandemic, vaccine incentives, and compressed work schedules. In addition, there are several other tables within the book exploring its impact on employment, telework, and consumer expenditures.
This edition of Handbook of U.S. Labor Statistics also includes a completely updated chapter on prices and the most current employment projections through 2030.
