Has job quality been \\"job one\\" in the economic recovery?

Loretta Mester and Elif Sen

Research Rap Special Report, 2013, issue Aug

Abstract: The Great Recession of 2007-09 has been followed by a Not-So-Great Recovery. The U.S. economy lost more than 8.7 million jobs, representing 6.3 percent of total U.S. payroll employment, on net, during the Great Recession. But while the recovery from this very deep recession began in June 2009, the first net increase in payrolls did not occur until March 2010, eight months into the recovery.
