Using the longitudinal potential of the Current Population Survey, this report provides information on changes in the labor market status of displaced workers between January 1984 and January 1985. Overall, persons displaced during the 1979-83 period appeared to be generally better off in January 1985 than they had been in January 1984. (CT)

The 1986 survey of displaced workers presents a more positive picture of post-displacement success than that conducted in 1984. Regional distribution also improved slightly. (CH)
