Less frequent job moves among young people deepened their pay squeeze by a third during the downturn, the report says.
该报告指出,在经济大萧条期间,由于更换工作次数的减少,年轻人的薪资比原来少了三分之一.
It could permanently slash their earnings potential in the labour market, experts fear.
针对以上情况,专家担心这样会长久地削弱劳动力市场中年轻群体的收入潜力.
Job mobility – the frequency at which people move from one job to another – is a strong predictor of faster earnings growth.
工作流动性,即人们更换工作的频率,可以很好地预测人们收入增长的速度.
And the "switching premium" – the pay boost from changing jobs compared to staying put – is particularly strong for young people.
而"转换溢价",即换工作比待在原岗位增加收入,这点在年轻群体中表现尤为突出.
Between 2007 and 2014, pay growth among 18-29-year-olds who switched jobs was 2.7 times higher than those who stayed in their existing positions.
2007年到2014年间,在18-29岁年龄层的群体中,跳槽的人薪资增长水平比留在原有岗位工作的人高了2.7倍.
Ms Gardiner urged young workers - dubbed the "Millennial generation" - to move to earn more.
加德纳女士敦促被称为"新千年一代"的年轻职员,要多换工作来赚更多的钱.
She added: "Unless we want to see a long term scarring effect on the wages of future generations, Millennials must regain confidence and increase the frequency with which they move jobs, and firms must be more willing to take them on."
她补充道："我们都不愿看到下一代人在薪酬方面长期受到负面影响,所以年轻一代需要重拾信心,多换换工作,而且公司需要更乐于接纳这些年轻人."
