Abstract: In this paper several hypotheses on the characteristics of employers which are contributing to employment growth are explored. Based on the analysis of a new data set for such studies, the Employment Service ES202 Unemployment Compensation data, an attempt is made to analyze empirically the statements of others, most notably Birch, as to the sources of employment growth. Among the issues explored are the contributions to employment growth by size, age, industry, and past employment history of establishments. It is concluded that sources and patterns of employment growth are more complex than past simplistic statements indicate.
