Description
Study analyzes 24 years of US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission data (1991-2015) from eight states to examine the degree to which Indigenous people are overrepresented in the lower paying, less desirable, non-managerial, public sector positions in local and state government bureaucracies and underrepresented in the more desirable, better paying, managerial positions.
