The National Council on Compensation Insurance has released a paper on current and projected demographic patterns in employment. The paper, “Latest Trends in Worker Demographics,” also includes data on injury frequency and time away from work.
Key takeaways include:
- Injury frequency has increased for four consecutive years for workers aged 65 and older.
- Women’s employment is growing faster than men’s employment at younger ages.
- Employment rose more for college graduates than other education groups before the pandemic and has fallen less for college graduates since the beginning of the pandemic.
- There may be long-run demographic changes in employment caused by the pandemic.
