"Trends in Domestic Outsourcing in the United States" featuring CEPR's Eileen Appelbaum
The Washington Center for Equitable Growth would like to invite you to the next installment in our new academic seminar series.
Our next seminar will take place on Tuesday, May 10, 2016 from 12:15PM to 1:30PM. Professor Rosemary Batt of Cornell University, and currently visiting at Equitable Growth, and Eileen Appelbaum, senior economist at the Center for Economic and Policy Research, will present a research agenda to analyze trends in "domestic outsourcing" in the United States. They examine firms' use of contractors and independent contractors and how this affects job quality and inequality. If you would like to read the paper in advance, you can find it here.
Please contact Carmen Ye at cye [at] equitablegrowth.org to RSVP by May 5, 2016. We will serve lunch starting at 12:15 p.m., and the program will start promptly at 12:30 p.m. Due to building security, RSVP is required.
