  • 1. Starting the New Century: Technological Change in the Canadian Private Sector, 2000-2002 Archived
    Articles and reports: 88F0006X2004001
    Description:

    Technological changes are occurring at home, work and play. In the workplace, change occurs in how business is conducted, its production processes and office procedures and much of this change is related to the introduction of new or significantly improved technologies. This paper is based on information from the 2002 Survey of Electronic Commerce and Technology (SECT) (see the Appendix) and concentrates on the acquisition of significantly improved technologies in the private sector. The private sector and its two major subsectors, the goods producing and services producing sectors, are presented by employment-size groups. The technological change rates by major sector are also provided.

    Technological change in the workplace includes the seemingly simple purchases of off-the-shelf technologies such as accounting software; colour printers with double-sided printing and facsimile capabilities; and sophisticated medical diagnostic machines and equipment. Acquisition of new or significantly improved technologies is not limited to purchases, but also includes leasing and licensing as well as customizing and developing technologies. Another technology acquisition method, which could incorporate all of the other technology acquisition methods, is 'putting into place an improved production facility' by, for example, retro-fitting pulp and paper mills. At the turn of the new century, the Canadian private sector is not resisting the lure of change - 4 out of 10 private sector firms introduced technological change from 2000 to 2002.

    Articles and reports: 88F0006X2002009
    Description:

    This paper is based on information from the 2000 Survey of Electronic Commence and Technology (SECT) and explores organizational and technological changes in the domestic private sector between 1998 and 2000. The discussion contrasts the adoption rates of goods producing industries with service producing industries. The text also discusses the impact of employment size on adoption rates within these two sectors.

    Information includes rates for training, subsequent to the introduction of organizational or technological change, followed by the type of technological change. Finally, data are broken down by major industrial group, within the goods producing and services producing sectors.

How do I use the filters and the search box?

  • You can initiate a search by entering keywords or selecting filters (e.g., under Subject, Geography, etc.) on the left side of the page.
