Employment security study, 1966

About this book

The data for this study were collected from the 53 employment security agencies in the United States which are responsible for administering unemployment insurance and providing public employment services in each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. The data were collected in early 1966 from key informants in each agency and from agency and census records. In addition, limited data were collected on the 387 divisions and 120 local offices of the agencies. The data cover the major characteristics of the agencies: the division of labor, levels of structure, routinization of roles, decentralization of authority, and the administrative practices of the agency.
