Project Description

Summary: This OpenICPSR repository contains all replication materials for the journal article "U.S. Trends in Job Stability by Sex, Race, and Ethnicity from 1996 to 2020", published in RSF: The Russell Sage Foundation Journal of the Social Sciences.

The key datasets are QWI hiring records and Current Population Survey Job Tenure Supplements.

The latter dataset is a subsample of the IPUMS CPS data available from cps.ipums.org. The attached data files are intended only for replication purposes. Individuals are not to redistribute the data without permission. Contact [email protected] for redistribution requests. For all other uses of these data, please access data directly via cps.ipums.org.

Any use of such data should be cited as follows:

All versions of this repository starting from V7 contain an errata documenting typos in the published article and minor numerical errors caused by the inclusion of a small number of non-response case erroneously included in the analytic sample. These changes do not substantively affect the published article's findings.
