- Articles and reports: 11F0019M2018412Description:
This study assesses job quality in Canada using an internationally inspired multidimensional framework that covers six broad aspects: income and benefits, career prospects, work intensity, working-time quality, skills and discretion, and social environment. The analysis uses the 2016 General Social Survey, which collected a rich set of information on working conditions in Canada.
Release date: 2018-12-10 - Articles and reports: 11-626-X2013032Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article addresses three questions: (1) What were the employment dynamics of a specific cohort of immigrant and native-born workers over the 20 years from 1991 to 2010? (2) To what extent did initial differences in earnings and pension coverage between the two groups narrow during this period? (3) Which factors were associated with the narrowing of these differences? The data are from the linked Census 1991-Longitudinal Worker File and pertain to real annual wages and salaries and pension coverage of immigrants aged 25 to 34 in 1991 who arrived in Canada from 1985 to 1990 and native-born workers of the same age.
Release date: 2013-11-29 - 3. Long term trends in unionization ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-006-X201300111878Geography: CanadaDescription:
In Canada, unionization rates declined in the 1980s and the 1990s, but remained relatively stable over the 2000s. However, the rates evolved differently across various characteristics, including gender, age groups, provinces, and industries. In this analysis, unionization rates are examined across various characteristics over the last three decades.

Many parents take time off work to care for a child after birth or adoption. Whether or not parents take leave and the duration of that leave may be influenced by characteristics such as parental employment or child and maternal health factors.
This article examines children's experiences of parent-reported leave after their birth or adoption. In addition, associations between leave and parent employment and child and maternal health factors are analyzed using data from the 2010 Survey of Young Canadians.
Release date: 2012-07-30 - 5. Health and employment ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200910913236Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article examines the relationship between health and work. Poor mental and physical health were found to decrease the probability of being employed, particularly among men. For women, mental health problems were also associated with working fewer hours.
Release date: 2009-12-17 - Articles and reports: 11-008-X200900210919Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article examines whether access to maternity and paternity benefits influences a couple's decision to have a child. We identify characteristics of people who are most likely to say that benefits would transform intentions into behaviour.
Release date: 2009-10-27 - Articles and reports: 81-004-X200900210895Description:
This article uses data from the National Apprenticeship Survey (NAS) 2007 to compare the profiles of apprentices who completed their programs between 2002 and 2004 and who had moved to Alberta by 2007 and those who stayed in their province of enrolment. It also compares a number of variables describing the working conditions of apprenticeship completers who migrated to Alberta for work and those who were working in the province where they received their training (other than Alberta).
Release date: 2009-06-17 - 8. Trends in employment and wages, 2002 to 2007 ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200810913216Geography: CanadaDescription:
In 2007, the proportion of employed people in Canada was at its highest level in at least three decades, while the national unemployment rate sank to a 33-year low of 5.8%. However, manufacturing employment in Canada, as in the United States, has been on a downward trend. Between 2002 and 2007 employment rates increased the most in the highest-paying industries and occupations. On the other hand, some job losses were experienced by machine operators and assembly workers. Retail trade had been the largest creator of new jobs but was surpassed in 2007 by construction, and health care and social assistance.
Release date: 2008-12-18 - 9. Fathers' use of paid parental leave ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200810613211Geography: CanadaDescription:
In 2001, shareable parental leave benefits under the federal Parental Benefits Program increased from 10 to 35 weeks, and in 2006 Quebec introduced its Parental Insurance Program. These changes led to a significant increase in the number of fathers claiming paid parental leave benefits. Between 2000 and 2006, the proportion of fathers claiming parental benefits jumped from 3% to 20%. The most common reasons for fathers not claiming the benefits were family choice, difficulty taking time off work and financial issues.
Release date: 2008-09-24 - 10. On the road again ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200610113156Geography: CanadaDescription:
Trucking plays a major role in Canada's economy. But because of the sector's steady growth, an aging workforce, and the declining popularity of the occupation, the industry may soon face a shortage of qualified truckers. A recent overall picture of truck drivers based on various sources is presented.
