The Displaced Worker, Job Tenure, and Occupational Mobility Supplement provides information on people who have lost or left jobs because their plant or company closed or moved, there was insufficient work for them to do, or their position or shift was abolished. It also gathers the number of years workers have been with their current employer and the economic impact of tenure. The information can be used to assess employment stability, displacement levels, occupational change over the year, and the need for, and scope of, programs serving adult displaced workers.
