Session One: How to measure job quality in your region

This discussion will focus on how to measure job quality and related disparities. The Brookings team will present a new but broadly similar set of data, based on a refined measurement approach. We will also suggest a few ways that this basic approach could be modified or extended (e.g., more or different wage levels, more demographic or industry or geographic detail). We hope to get participants’ feedback on the basic approach and what additional data would be most useful.   

This call will be data-centric but we want and need input from people who are not data experts! We need to understand what the narrative in your region is, among businesses and other actors, and how you’re trying to shape that narrative.
