The chapter shows that the increase in rate of pay for young white women from 1968 to 1969 was almost twice that for young black women. The changes are shown to be related to occupation and education. The movement from one employer to another at that time is correlated with education, occupation, length of service in former job, rate of pay, job satisfaction, job attachment, marital status, and residence. Two noteworthy results of an employer change seem to be a higher rate of pay, and a greater perception of job satisfaction by the employees. Changes in geographic location are correlated with occupation, education, change in marital status, and prospective mobility in 1968. The consequences of changing one's geographical location seem to be a greater likelihood for change in job satisfaction and a much smaller increase in rate of pay for those who change locations than for those who did not move.
