Notes: All workers were employed and at work in February. Column 1 includes those who were observed in February and Aprilof at least 1 year. Column 2 includes those who were observed in all 4 months in order to further minimize concerns that the parallel trends assumption may be violated because of differences in the sample’s composition (note: February means are similar, see Appendix Table 15). Standard errors in parentheses are clustered by household. See Table 1 for control variables; * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01
