Resumen
Descripción
This brief describes the results of
the labor market module, which tracks changes in employment
status, job type, and labor earnings. Job- and
earnings-related outcomes are tracked in three periods: (a)
in January 2020; (b) at the time of the first lockdowns
(March–April 2020), through a series of retrospective
questions; and (c) in the previous seven days, through
standard questions about current work status. This
retrospective panel design allows for the assessment of
changes in labor market outcomes for economically active
people in 2020. A complimentary brief examines the impacts
of income shocks on the ability to meet basic needs and the
coping strategies available to households.
