Uses recent data from the San Francisco's Bay Area Longitudinal Survey (BALS) to evaluate characteristics of recruiting and screening methods, skill requirements in entry-level jobs, and promotional opportunities concerning jobs available to workers with little formal education or work experience. Finds that low-skilled jobs do require skills in English, mathematics, problem-solving and communication, often relatively high physical and mechanical abilities, and that firms carry increased wages and offer promotional opportunities. Provides details about the skill assessment and job duties.

This book examines the marked increase in the number of Asians emigrating to the United States in the early 1990s to identify 1) the role of their hard work played in their migration to America and 2) what the labor market realities were once they arrived. Investigating the labor supply (labor force participation and hours worked) and occupational structures of Asian immigrants in the U.S. labor market, this study argues that not only are diligent people more likely to emigrate to the U.S., but their work habits remain steady. An empirical analysis, using the most recent data set 1990 Census, examines the impact of various socioeconomic variables on labor force participation and hours worked for male and married female Asian immigrants. The tied-mover issue is also addressed for married couples. Why is immigrants' occupational structure different from that of natives? This study answers this question both theoretically and empirically by proposing that employers' discrimination against immigrants andthe source of job market information determine the immigrants' occupational structure. Since different occupations embody varying degrees of social and economic prestige, it is not surprising that an immigrant's occupation directly effects his social network. This is important because one's social network affects opportunities for success. (Ph.D. dissertation, Johns Hopkins University, 1997; revised with new preface, bibliography, and index)

About 27.5 million Americans—nearly 24 percent of the labor force—earn less than $8.70 an hour, not enough to keep a family of four out of poverty, even working full-time year-round. Job ladders for these workers have been dismantled, limiting their ability to get ahead in today's labor market. Low-Wage America is the most extensive study to date of how the choices employers make in response to economic globalization, industry deregulation, and advances in information technology affect the lives of tens of millions of workers at the bottom of the wage distribution. Based on data from hundreds of establishments in twenty-five industries—including manufacturing, telecommunications, hospitality, and health care—the case studies document how firms' responses to economic restructuring often results in harsh working conditions, reduced benefits, and fewer opportunities for advancement. For instance, increased pressure for profits in newly consolidated hotel chains has led to cost-cutting strategies such as requiring maids to increase the number of rooms they clean by 50 percent. Technological changes in the organization of call centers—the ultimate "disposable workplace"—have led to monitoring of operators' work performance, and eroded job ladders. Other chapters show how the temporary staffing industry has provided paths to better work for some, but to dead end jobs for many others; how new technology has reorganized work in the back offices of banks, raising skill requirements for workers; and how increased competition from abroad has forced U.S. manufacturers to cut costs by reducing wages and speeding production. Although employers' responses to economic pressures have had a generally negative effect on frontline workers, some employers manage to resist this trend and still compete successfully. The benefits to workers of multi-employer training consortia and the continuing relevance of unions offer important clues about what public policy can do to support the job prospects of this vast, but largely overlooked segment of the American workforce. Low-Wage America challenges us to a national self-examination about the nature of low-wage work in this country and asks whether we are willing to tolerate the profound social and economic consequences entailed by these jobs.
