Abstract
Although there has been continuing job growth in the US service sector there is growing concern over the ‘quality ‘of these jobs. This article examines the ‘quality of jobs' issue. Two approaches are employed: the industry approach and the earnings approach. Results show that the job shift to services has not adversely affected women from an earnings standpoint. However, there is some evidence that men have been adversely affected.Keywords
