Book excerpt: Permanently separated workers have had a much more difficult time in finding employment during the most recent recession than any other time in the past 15 years. Almost 40% of those who lost or left a job in 1989 did not have a job in 1993. This is in marked contrast with the experience of the early 1980s, when 29% of permanently separated workers were jobless 3 years after the separation. A very similar trend is found when the analysis is applied to labour market transitions among permanently laid-off workers. There is a great deal of out-of-province migration among permanently separated workers who did find a job. Nearly 45% of those who lost or left a job in 1989 and found a job in 1993 were employed outside of Ontario. An identical proportion of permanently laid-off workers is found to be employed in other provinces. There is tremendous inter-industrial mobility among permanently separated workers who found employment in Ontario. Less than 44% of those separated from a job in 1989 and found employment in 1993 in Ontario have remained in the same industry. Inter-industrial mobility is even greater among permanently separated workers in 1989 who did find employment in 1993 in other provinces -- only 38% stayed in the same industry. Very similar inter-industrial mobility patterns are observed among permanently laid-off workers who found a job in Ontario as well as outside of Ontario.
