abstract: 'Using the 2004 and 2008 panels of the Survey for Income and Program
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Participation (SIPP), we examine whether the heavily feminized health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
care industry produces ``good jobs{''''} for workers without a college
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
degree as compared to other major industries. For women, we find that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
jobs in the health care industry are significantly more likely than the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
food service and retail industries to provide wages above \$15 per hour,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health benefits, fulltime hours, and job security. Jobs in the health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
care industry are not ``good jobs{''''} for low- and middle-skill men in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
terms of wages, relative to the industries of construction and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
manufacturing, but health care jobs can provide men with greater job
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
security, and in comparison to construction, a higher probability of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employer-based health insurance. That said, the findings emphasize that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
because men and women are differentially distributed across industries,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
access to different forms of job quality is also gendered across
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
industries, with important implications for gender dynamics and economic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
strain within working class families.'
