Abstract
"This paper uses a unique set of [U.S.] data to estimate the magnitude of the linkages between employment changes and net employment migration. A simple simultaneous system is specified and estimated for 17 consecutive years. In an average year two extra jobs attract about one additional net migrant, and one additional net migrant has a direct effect on area employment of almost 1.4 jobs." The data are from the One-Percent Social Security Continuous Work History Sample and are for the years 1958 to 1975. The changes in this relationship over time as the economic situation varies are analyzed. excerptKeywords: Americas; Demographic Factors; Developed Countries; Developing Countries; Economic Conditions; Economic Factors; Employment Status; Human Resources; Labor Force; Macroeconomic Factors; Migration; Migration, Internal; North America; Northern America; Population; Population Dynamics; Research Report; Socioeconomic Factors; Socioeconomic Status; United States
