Key findings include:
- These workers are in occupations that require physical presence at the workplace and/or a high level of personal proximity, limiting the scope of #telework or working from home. These include the accommodation, food services, transportation, and retail and wholesale sectors.
- Vulnerable workers tend to be young, without a college degree, are in less secure work arrangements (e.g. temporary contracts or are self-employed) and are often employed in small and medium enterprises.
- Policy makers should take into account these demographic and distributional considerations to craft responses that would lessen the inequality brought about by the #COVID19 pandemic.
