Age of Workers in Covered Employment: Industry Differences, 1949

چکیده
T HE development of private pension plans was stimulated during World War II by the Federal Government’s wage stabilization program, which permitted the adoption of pension plans while restricting increases in wage rates. This growth has been accompanied by increased interest in the personal and economic characteristics of workers in industries currently covered by such plans, as well as in industries where similar plans may be contemplated. Data on employment and taxable earnings tabulated annually by the Bureau of Old-Age and Survivors Insurance provide some indication of the duration of employment, mobility, the sex and age distribution of workers in covered employment, and the differences in these characteristics by industry group.* The present article analyzes age differences of workers in 68 selected industries covered by the old-age and survivors program in 1949. Previous articles have analyzed some of these characteristics for earlier years2
