The contents of this repository form the basis for CEPR’s report on workers on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. CEPR has used this data to produce related reports on Native American frontline workers, meatpacking workers, frontline mothers, Black frontline workers, and frontline workers in Chicago and Illinois.
The National Partnership for Women & Families has also cited our data. Finally, our state data has been used and adapted in subsequent reports by other organizations, including:
