Answer to Question 2

The term split labor market refers to the division of the economy into two areas of

employment, a primary sector or upper tier, composed of higher-paid (usually dominant-

group) workers in more secure jobs, and a secondary sector or lower tier, composed of

lower-paid (often subordinate-group) workers in jobs with little security and hazardous

working conditions. According to this perspective, white workers in the upper tier use

racial discrimination against nonwhites to protect their positions.
