The impact of technology on displacement and reemployment

Daniel Aaronson and Ken Housinger

Economic Perspectives, 1999, vol. 23, issue Q II, 14-30

Abstract: This article explores whether job displacement is more prevalent in industries with higher technological innovation and whether older and less skilled employees are more prone to technology-induced job displacement. The authors also test whether the probability of reemployment is lower for older and less skilled workers in high-technology industries.
