- 1. Paid and unpaid work over three generations ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X201200111612Geography: CanadaDescription:
Research suggests that the division of labour and men's and women's role expectations are continuing to evolve. This may be especially true for Generation Y, those born between 1980 and 1995, who grew up during a period of changing family dynamics and family formation. This article examines the changes in the participation in, and time spent on, paid jobs and unpaid household work for individuals age 20 to 29 from three generations - late Baby Boomers, Generation X and Generation Y.
Release date: 2011-12-20 - 2. Self-contained Labour Areas: A Proposed Delineation and Classification by Degree of Rurality ArchivedArticles and reports: 21-006-X2008008Geography: CanadaDescription:
One of the most common terms in economic and social reporting is that of "labour market". This concept is normally used with two main connotations, which to some extent overlap. The first emphasizes a set of employment norms, practices and trends that are in some cases specific to certain occupations or industries. The second connotation emphasizes the spatial dimension of the market, as the geographic area in which a multitude of labour activities occur. In this bulletin, our focus is on this second aspect: we identify a set of self-contained labour areas (SLAs), which in broad terms can be described as geographic spaces in which the majority of the residents in the labour force also have their place of work.
Release date: 2011-12-19 - 3. How Have the Risk of Layoff and Earnings Losses of Laid-off Workers Evolved Since the Late 1970s in Canada? ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0019M2011339Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study examines how the risk of job loss and the short-term earnings losses of laid-off workers evolved between the late 1970s and the mid-2000s.
Release date: 2011-12-15 - 4. Families, living arrangements and unpaid work ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-503-X201000111546Geography: CanadaDescription:
This chapter on families, living arrangements and unpaid work examines the family context and living arrangements of women, including their conjugal lives, and for those in couples, whether they are legal marriages or common-law unions, opposite-sex or same-sex couples, and whether or not there are children present. In addition, female lone-parent families are also analysed, as well as women who live in other arrangements, such as alone or with non-relatives. Other patterns related to births, marriages and divorces are explored, as are family characteristics and living arrangements of immigrant women and visible minority women. Finally, the area of unpaid work is examined, specifically, care of household children, domestic work (including housework and household maintenance) and volunteering.
Release date: 2011-12-14 - 5. Salaries and Salary Scales of Full-time Teaching Staff at Canadian Universities, 2009/2010: Final Report ArchivedTable: 81-595-M2011096Geography: CanadaDescription:
This bulletin presents the final set of tables which contain salary information for the year 2009/2010. This information is collected annually under the University and College Academic Staff System and has a reference date of October 1st. Therefore, the data reflect employment in universities as of that date. Each university must authorize Statistics Canada to release their information. However, information for institutions that have less than 100 full-time staff are not included.
Release date: 2011-12-13 - Articles and reports: 11-010-X201101211611Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper reviews trends in the labour force participation rate from 1997 to the third quarter of 2011 and explores possible explanations as to why the participation rate was no longer increasing even before the onset of the 2008-2009 recession.
Release date: 2011-12-08 - Articles and reports: 11-008-X201100211592Geography: CanadaDescription:
Recent immigrants are having more difficulty adjusting to the Canadian economy than did their predecessors. It is taking newcomers longer to achieve employment and income levels similar to those of the Canadian-born. Using the General Social Survey conducted in 2008, this article examines whether personal networks, along with more typically-used measures of human capital, might explain differences in employment and income levels between immigrants and other Canadians. Are more limited personal networks associated with lower employment rates and incomes among Canada's more recent immigrants?
Release date: 2011-11-30 - 8. Regional economic shocks and migration ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X201100411593Geography: CanadaDescription:
Following an economic shock affecting a city or region, many residents - particularly those who have just lost their jobs - will likely look to migrate to another region to improve their economic situation. This study uses data from the 1997 to 2008 Longitudinal Administrative Databank (LAD) to evaluate the impact of regional economic shocks on the migration of residents. In particular, it examines the extent to which a deterioration in the relative economic position of a region and a decrease in personal income are linked to higher probabilities of migration.
Release date: 2011-11-23 - 9. Delayed retirement: A new trend? ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X201100411578Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article examines changes since 1976 in a number of indicators that show the aging of Canadian workers and a growing number of workers delaying retirement. The increase in delayed retirement is consistent with an increase in the employment rate of older workers, however, it is at odds with statistics indicating that the average retirement age has remained surprisingly stable. This article attempts to reconcile the two apparently contradictory trends using a new expected working-life indicator.
Release date: 2011-10-26 - Articles and reports: 11F0027M2011073Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper examines how the nature of self-employment may have changed, by comparing the labour market transition rates for males (between non-employment, paid employment, own-account self-employment, and self-employment with paid help) in two panels of the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID): the 1993-1998 panel and the 2002-2007 panel. An econometric model is then estimated for the purpose of characterizing the change further.

Release date: 2011-10-20 - Articles and reports: 11F0019M2011338Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper examines the labour market benefits associated with becoming a citizen of the host country, in this case Canada or the United States. Recent international research indicates that there is an economic return to acquiring citizenship. In addition, the paper examines the rising gap in the citizenship rate between Canada and the United States and examines the differences in individual and region characteristics of immigrants as a possibility for explaining changes in the citizenship rate gap.
