A new article from the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta examines policy interventions related to unemployment, health care insurance, and retirement savings. The charts presented in this article illustrate the mixed experiences of workers since 2000. This article is the second in a three-part series that brings together labor market, workforce, occupational, and educational trends since 2000 to tell a story of American workers through data. This is a story told primarily through charts and tables to serve as a visual depiction of how workers are experiencing the labor market.
The article’s authors are Dr. Carl Van Horn of the Heldrich Center for Workforce Development at Rutgers University, Nyerere Hodge of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, and Stuart Andreason of the Burning Glass Institute.
