Impact of COVID-19 on Asian Employment in New York City
Author: Rimsha Khan
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Asian Americans
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
The far-reaching economic impact of COVID-19 has been felt across the nation, but has been particularly harmful to New York City’s Asian American workers and their families. Nationally, Asian American unemployment rates increased from 2.5% in February 2020, to 14.5% in April 2020, to 15% in May 2020 , the greatest rate of increase among all racial groups across the country. The Asian American Federation’s report will focus on what is happening locally in New York City. There is limited data on the current Asian American employment at the local level. The best survey on employment by Asian ethnicity for local areas is the American Community Survey. However, it only releases annual data in the fall and winter of each year; therefore, this report will use available local data to gauge the impact of COVID-19 on employment among Asian New Yorkers. First, we will look at the growth in state unemployment claims by Asian Americans. Next, we will use data from the American Community Survey to estimate how reliant each Asian community in New York City is on specific industries for jobs. Finally, we will look at the most recent employment reports to measure year-to-year changes in job loss for April and May to see the impact of COVID-19 on industries that Asian New Yorkers have traditionally relied on for employment.

Hidden Disadvantage

Publisher:
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 11
Book Description
Nationally, Asian Americans have the lowest unemployment rate of the major racial groups. But a closer look at unemployment by educational attainment shows a more complicated picture. Asian Americans with bachelor's degrees have a higher unemployment rate than whites with comparable education, but Asian American high school dropouts are more successful than comparable whites at finding jobs. As a result, the economic hardships and disadvantages for Asian Americans are sometimes overlooked. This Issue Brief shows that Asian American workers experience a complex mix of advantages and disadvantages in finding jobs when education level is considered. It concludes that if Asian Americans had the same unemployment rates by education level as whites, the Asian American unemployment rate would have been almost a percentage point lower in the fourth quarter of 2009. Thus, Asian American workers are disadvantaged relative to white workers in finding jobs. This paper examines the Asian American unemployment rate nationally and in five states: California, Hawaii, New Jersey, New York, and Texas. Only these five states had Current Population Survey sample sizes large enough for reliable statistics on Asian American unemployment. These analyses of Asian Americans exclude Pacific Islander, multi-racial, and Hispanic workers. The data for white workers also exclude multi-racials and Hispanics. (Contains 6 tables, 4 figures and 2 endnotes.).

Asians in the United States Labor Market

ISBN:
Category : Asian Americans
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
This book examines employment, earnings, and income of the six major foreign and native born Asian groups, namely, Asian Indians, Chinese, Filipinos, Japanese, Koreans, and the Vietnamese in the United States for the year 2000. This research makes three contributions. First, it provides an updated analysis of employment and earning attainments of Asian individuals disaggregated by countries of origin, gender, and nativity status using the latest available and most suitable data. Second, it explores the use of a non-parametric technique, namely reweighting, to assess the earning gaps between Asians and whites. Third, it analyzes intergroup variations in household income, inclination to pool resources, and factors associated with the likelihood of forming nuclear living arrangements. The overall findings from this research suggest that - at both the individual and household levels, the differences between the foreign born and the native born Asian groups are more significant than the intergroup variations among Asians.
