Notes: Coefficients for Equation 1 using April (left panel) and May (right panel) 2020 CPS Data for individuals on the labor force and with recent unemployment as the dependent variable. Column (1) includes socio-demographic and job tasks’ characteristics. Column (2) adds the states’ epidemiological conditions as measured by their COVID-19 log exposure, interacted with occupation characteristics. Column (3) adds occupation and industries fixed effects. All models include state fixed effects. Standard errors from multi-way clustering at the state and occupation level in parentheses. Statistical significance level:
*
p<0.1;
**
p<0.05;
***
p<0.01
