The Changing Employment Circumstances of Managers

Paul Osterman

Chapter 11 in America at Work, 2006, pp 193-209 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In 2003, just under 6.5 million Americans worked as managers, and they earned an average annual salary of $83,400, while the average for all workers was $36,520.1 The unemployment rate for managers that year was 2.9 percent, less than half the overall unemployment rate of 6 percent. Clearly, managers are a privileged group. But perhaps surprisingly, they are often seen as victims.
