High Labor Market Churn During the 2020 Recession

Claudia Macaluso

Richmond Fed Economic Brief, 2021, vol. 21, issue 06

Abstract: Richmond Fed research has found that job losses during the COVID-19 recession have been concentrated in high-turnover sectors, with turnover rates in those occupations even higher than they were during the Great Recession. Workers displaced from high-turnover occupations often avoid long periods of unemployment, but they are historically less likely to develop long-term employment relationships, which limits their potential for sustained wage growth.
