Abstract
- Differences in health status across different race and ethnic groups in the United States, particularly between black and white Americans, have been the subject of considerable medical and social science research. In this article, we focus on one dimension of such consequences: the association between race differences in health status and race differences in labor market outcomes. We sought microdata that contained information about the respondents' demographic and health status, as well as their labor force behavior and labor-related outcomes such as earnings and income.
