Chair: Miguel R. Olivas-Lujan; Clarion U. of Pennsylvania; Hispanic-Americans (Hispanics) currently make up 15 percent of the U.S. population, and account for more than half (50.5%) of its population growth (Pew Hispanic Center, 2010). They are also expected to comprise at least 25 percent of the population by 2030 (U. S. Bureau of Census, 2009). Despite this growth, there has been relatively little research aimed at understanding Hispanic work issues. Thus, the primary purposes of this symposium are to: (a) consider the results of recent research on Hispanic job applicants, employees, and business owners, (b) discuss the implications of this research for developing organizational policies and practices, and (c) foster theory development and empirical research on Hispanics at work. | Search Terms: | Hispanics , Culture , Rewards | Relations among Values, Ethnicity, and Job Choice Tradeoff Preferences Presenter: Eugene F Stone-Romero; U. of Texas, San Antonio; Presenter: Linda C.
