a-Based on a sample of 11159 observations (3487 workers). Standard errors in parenthesis.
b- Rank change conditional on reported intra-firm job change.
c-Rank change up (down or same) is a dummy indicating a higher (lower or same) rank
in period t compared to t-1.
d-Average difference in log wages between t and t-1 for current growth and t-2 and t-1 for
previous wage growth. The period t-1 is the period before reported job (and rank) change.
f-The percentages for the first two columns on job change do not add up to 100 because
frequencies are computed over the total sample which also includes between firms job changers.
