This paper examines the employment and turnover experiences of U.K. manufacturing industries. It focuses on differences in the rate of job loss, differences in the rate of turnover, and the link between the two. Cross-section evidence is provided, covering all the manufacturing industries, and time series regressions for four principal industries. Differences in the rate of job loss depend on variations in the rate of change of desired employment and differences in the speed of adjustment arising from differences in union strength and the quit rate. reflection of demographic and skill factors.
