Release date: 2001-12-12 - Articles and reports: 88-003-X20010035966Geography: CanadaDescription:
Two-thirds of advanced technology-using manufacturing establishments experienced some type of skill shortage in the latter part of the 1990s. Shortages were greatest for machine operators, industrial engineers and machinists, with about a quarter of plant managers reporting a shortage in each of these areas. Production managers and computer professionals were next, with one-in-five plants indicating a shortage.

Based on information from the 1997 Biotechnology Firm Survey, we know biotechnology firms generated $813 million in biotech revenues; employed 9,000 people in biotech-related activities and had almost 9,000 products across all stages of development. Explore issues such as - What are the main features of this sector? What is the extent of networking activities by the firms? And what kinds of problems are they facing when selling their products?
Release date: 2001-10-31 - 8. After the layoff ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X20010105960Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study looks at the results of permanent layoffs from full-time jobs. How long does it take laid-off workers to find a new job? What factors affect the length of joblessness? For those who are successful in finding a new job, what is the wage gap between the old job and the new one? What factors influence this wage gap?

This publication incorporates data on travel and tourism from many different sources. It consists of analytical texts, charts and tables on demand and supply of tourism products and services. Data are presented at the national, provincial and regional/municipal levels.
Release date: 2001-10-12 - Articles and reports: 11F0019M2001174Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper investigates the evolution of the industrial structure in the Canadian manufacturing sector and its relationship to technological change by examining the take-up of advanced technologies and how it is related to the stochastic growth process in the plant population. Its framework is grounded in the view that growth is a stochastic process that involves learning. Experimentation with new technologies rewards some firms with superior growth and profitability. Examining how growth is associated with the choice of different technology strategies indicates which of these is being rewarded.
The evolution of this process is studied by examining the relationship between the uptake of advanced technologies and the performance of plants in the manufacturing sector. This is done by using cross-sectional data on advanced technology use and by combining it with longitudinal panel data on plant performance. In particular, the paper examines the relationship between the use of information and communications technology (ICT) and the growth in a plant's market share and its relative productivity.
The study finds that a considerable amount of market share is transferred from declining firms to growing firms over a decade. At the same time, the growers increase their productivity relative to the losers. Those technology users that were using communications technologies or that combined technologies from different classes increased their relative productivity the most. In turn, gains in relative productivity were accompanied by gains in market share. Other factors that were associated with gains in market share were the presence of R&D facilities and other innovative activities.
