Four CSV files quantify the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on industries and occupations. The data includes calculated supply, demand, and total shock metrics, employment crosswalks, and essential industry scores. Researchers R. Maria del Rio-Chanona, Penny Mealy, Anton Pichler, Francois Lafond, and J. Doyne Farmer compiled this data to analyze the pandemic's labor market effects.
Use Cases
- Modeling industry-level economic resilience based on calculated supply and demand shock metrics.
- Analyzing labor market reallocation potential using the industry-occupation employment crosswalk.
- Identifying critical sectors during crises based on the essential score of industries.
- Studying the feasibility of remote work transitions using the classification of work activities.
Strengths
- Includes four distinct, interlinked data files for a multi-faceted analysis.
- Provides pre-calculated shock metrics (supply, demand, total) for direct use in models.
- Links industries to occupations and work activities, enabling detailed labor market studies.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
