Notes: Cluster-robust multivariate linear regressions. Variables included in the model, but not shown, are sex, age, diploma, currency of the work episode, workload (ln) and duration (ln) of employment. Superscript significance labels: employer types sharing a letter in the label did not differ significantly at the 5-percent level with regard to their corresponding WCS. *Only assessed for the current work episode
