55%!
Since the recession began 30 months ago, more than half of all adults in the workforce—55 percent—say that they have either been unemployed, taken a pay cut, had their work hours reduced or have become involuntary part-time workers, according to a new survey by the Pew Research Center’s Social and Demographic Trends Project.
The survey shows the impact of the recession goes far beyond the 9.5 percent of the workforce that is unemployed and the 16.5 percent underemployed.
