Five decades of CPS wages, methods, and union‐nonunion wage gaps at Unionstats.com

Industrial Relations: A Journal of Economy and Society, 2023, vol. 62, issue 4, 439-452

Abstract: Unionstats.com provides annual measures of union, nonunion, and overall wages, beginning in 1973, compiled from the U.S. Current Population Surveys. Regression‐based union wage gap estimates are presented economy‐wide, for demographic groups, and sectors (private/public, industries). Union wage gaps are higher in the private than in the public sector, higher for men than women, roughly similar for black and white men, and much higher for Hispanic men than for Hispanic women. The database is updated annually.
