Note(s): A linear probability model is used. The estimating equation regresses the binary dependent variable of whether the displaced workers were re-employed with a paid job at the last month of the Labour Force Survey interview on different sets of controls. Sample weights are used to provide estimates for the entire population. Standard errors account for complex survey design (stratification, clustering, and non-response).
