- 11. Which Firms Have High Job Vacancy Rates in Canada? ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0019M2001176Geography: CanadaDescription:
Since the Job Vacancy Survey conducted by Statistics Canada between 1971 and 1978, there is no data which directly measures job vacancies in Canada. Using data from the 1999 Workplace and Employee Survey (WES), we attempt to fill this gap. We study the determinants of job vacancies at the location level. We find that workplaces with high vacancy rates consist of at least two types: 1) those employing a highly skilled workforce, innovating, adopting new technologies increasing skill requirements, facing significant international competition and operating in tight local labour markets, and 2) those which are non-unionized, operate in retail trade and consumer services industries and are not part of a multi-location firm. As a result, a substantial share of job vacancies are not in the high-technology sectors. More than 40% of all job vacancies and 50% of long-term vacancies originate from retail trade and consumer services industries.

Release date: 2001-11-01 - 13. How Much of Canada's Unemployment Is Structural? ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0019M2000145Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper starts from the definition that "structural unemployment occurs when workers are unable to fill available jobs because they lack the skills, do not live where jobs are available, or are unwilling to work at the wage rate offered in the market." This implies that the number of vacancies in the Canadian labour market is an upper bound to the extent of "structural unemployment". The paper summarizes available estimates of the vacancy rate in Canada. In the high technology sector, vacancies may be equivalent to 2.2% of the labour force but evidence from more representative surveys indicates a range of 0.43% to 0.75% for the economy as a whole. Although during the 1980s the outward shift in the relationship between the Help-Wanted Index and the unemployment rate raised concerns that structural unemployment was an increasing problem in Canada, that shift has been reversed in the 1990s.
Release date: 2000-10-16 - Articles and reports: 63-016-X19980013842Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study presents estimates of job reallocation, calculated as gross job gains plus gross job losses; compares job reallocation in the service sector to that in the goods-producing sector; explains why innovative industries do not necessarily have similar employment patterns; and examines why some industries that are less technologically sophisticated appear to exhibit the same job reallocation patterns as some innovative industries.
