This study reports on an empirical investigation of labor market behavior among young workers. The hypothesis tested in this study is that sex-related differences in younger labor market participants do not affect their decision to voluntarily change their employment status, against the simple alternative that sex-related differences do produce such an effect. The study first investigates sex differences in the reasons for quitting employment and then empirically estimates the probability of quitting using a logit model. Hence, the model allows us to examine how a set of attributes influences the probability of an individual quitting employment.
