- 1. Earnings Losses of Displaced Workers with Stable Labour Market Attachment: Recent Evidence from Canada ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0019M2012346Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study examines long-term earnings losses of workers laid off during the early 1990s and the early 2000s using data from Statistics Canada's Longitudinal Worker File (LWF). In contrast to earlier studies, many of which focused on narrowly defined samples, this study compares earnings losses across all groups of displaced workers with stable labour market attachment prior to layoff. The study shows that focusing solely on high-seniority laid-off workers or workers laid off in firm closures leads to the exclusion of at least two-thirds of Canadian displaced workers with stable labour market attachment.
Release date: 2012-11-29 - Articles and reports: 12-001-X201200111684Description:
Many business surveys provide estimates for the monthly turnover for the major Standard Industrial Classification codes. This includes estimates for the change in the level of the monthly turnover compared to 12 months ago. Because business surveys often use overlapping samples, the turnover estimates in consecutive months are correlated. This makes the variance calculations for a change less straightforward. This article describes a general variance estimation procedure. The procedure allows for yearly stratum corrections when establishments move into other strata according to their actual sizes. The procedure also takes into account sample refreshments, births and deaths. The paper concludes with an example of the variance for the estimated yearly growth rate of the monthly turnover of Dutch Supermarkets.
Release date: 2012-06-27 - 3. Measures of Employment Turnover Post 2000: Gross Employment Gains and Losses Versus Net Employment Change ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-626-X2012009Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article in the Economic Insights series decomposes business-sector annual net employment growth into gross employment creation and gross employment destruction at the firm level. It is based on research carried out by Statistics Canada on the topic of business dynamics.
Release date: 2012-06-27 - 4. Cities and Growth: Moving to Toronto - Income Gains Associated with Large Metropolitan Labour Markets ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-622-M2012023Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper examines the process by which migrants experience gains in earnings subsequent to migration and, in particular, the advantage that migrants obtain from moving to large, dynamic metropolitan labour markets, using Toronto as a benchmark. There are two potentially distinct patterns to gains in earnings associated with migration. The first is a step upwards in which workers realize immediate gains in earnings subsequent to migration. The second is accelerated gains in earnings subsequent to migration. Immediate gains are associated with obtaining a position in a more productive firm and/or a better match between worker skills and abilities and job tasks. Accelerated gains in earnings are associated processes that take time, such as learning or job switching as workers and firms seek out better matches. Evaluated here is the expectation that the economies of large metropolitan areas provide workers with an initial productive advantage stemming from a one-time improvement in worker productivity and/or a dynamic that accelerates gains in earnings over time through the potentially entwined processes of learning and matching. A variety of datasets and methodologies, including propensity score matching, are used to evaluate patterns of income gains associated with migration to Toronto.
