Studies have documented the adverse consequences of job loss (displacement) for U.S. workers. These studies have shown that the experienced displaced worker in the U.S. suffers large earnings losses. No studies have examined the pre- and post-layoff earnings trajectories of limited English proficient displaced workers in the U.S. Nor have studies examined whether post-layoff training affects the post-displacement earnings trajectories of these workers.

520 $a Studies have documented the adverse consequences of job loss (displacement) for U.S. workers. These studies have shown that the experienced displaced worker in the U.S. suffers large earnings losses. No studies have examined the pre- and post-layoff earnings trajectories of limited English proficient displaced workers in the U.S. Nor have studies examined whether post-layoff training affects the post-displacement earnings trajectories of these workers.
520 $a In this study, I explored the impact of displacement and training on the earnings trajectories of limited English proficient displaced workers. I combined background and participation data on 1,103 individuals who exited from publicly funded displaced worker training programs in Massachusetts between July l, 1997 and June 30, 2000 with longitudinal data on their quarterly earnings from UI-covered employment.
520 $a In my data analyses, I used Generalized Least Squares regression analysis to fit random effects models of individual earnings as a function of time, displacement, and training. I found that displaced workers with poor English skills typically have low earnings. These workers face a steep drop in earnings at layoff and have low labor market re-entry earnings. They do, however, enjoy earnings recovery post-layoff.
520 $a With respect to training, my results indicate that training affects the post-layoff earnings trajectories of workers but that this effect may depend on time and English reading ability. Sensitivity analyses showed that this effect is first and foremost an effect on employment.
520 $a My findings underscore the importance of providing displaced workers with job training and English language instruction. My results further justify a greater emphasis on programs designed to increase the skills and educational attainment of these workers once re-employed. This may allow workers to minimize their losses and firms to meet their demand for skilled labor.
