Introduction
■ We will describe the confidentiality protection mechanism as
applied to a new statistical product: the Quarterly Workforce
Indicators (QWI).
■ The underlying data infrastructure was designed by the
Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics Program at the
Census Bureau and is described in detail in Abowd et al
(2005).
■ From a longitudinally integrated frame of state
unemployment insurance wage records, we create measures
of employment, wages, hiring, separation, job creation and
job destruction.
