Changing Labor Market Patterns in the Nonprofit and For-Profit Sectors: Implications for Nonprofit Management
Abstract
Similarities & differences in labor patterns in the nonprofit
& for-profit sectors in the US are described based on analyses of
the 1977 & 1980 survey data (N not provided) & current
population survey data for 1973-1985. Results point to a marked
decline during the 1980s in the wages of women in the nonprofit sector
relative to women in the for-profit sector, which is likely to lead to
labor shortages in the nonprofit sector if nonprofit managers do not
engage in active policies to attract new workers. Suggestions are made
for improving aspects of compensation & nonprofit job attributes.
