Download or read book Lessons in Learning: More Education, Less Employment written by Canadian Council on Learning and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly one out of five Canadian residents was born outside of Canada and approximately two-thirds of Canada's population growth results from net international migration. Only Australia, where immigrants represent 24% of the population, has a greater percentage of immigrants than Canada (18%). Immigration is a major factor in Canada's economic growth, but successful transitions into the Canadian labour market remain elusive for many immigrants, whose skills, knowledge and experience are too frequently under-utilized. This paper presents several strategies for removing obstacles to the successful integration of immigrants into labour markets. (Contains 3 figures.).

Book Synopsis Warmth Of The Welcome by : Jeffrey G Reitz
Download or read book Warmth Of The Welcome written by Jeffrey G Reitz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how the economic performance of immigrants is shaped by national and urban social institutions. In the United States, particularly in the high-immigration cities, most immigrant-origin groups have significantly lower earnings than do their counterparts in Canadian or Australian cities. Immigration policy is not a factor, however; in fact U.S. immigrants?in particular origin groups?are not less skilled. American institutions, including education, labor market structures, and social welfare, all reflect greater individualism and all contribute to the potential for inequality. Resulting higher poverty rates for America's immigrants explains their more extensive use of its weaker welfare system. Jeffrey Reitz's social institutional approach projects the impact of institutional restructuring?past and future?on the economic performance of immigrants in these countries.
Book Synopsis Immigrants and the Labour Force by : Ravi Pendakur
Download or read book Immigrants and the Labour Force written by Ravi Pendakur and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2000-07-31 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First, Canada's primary source for immigrants has shifted dramatically from the United Kingdom and Europe to countries outside Europe. Second there has been a remarkable transformation in the nature of work: Canada's economy has changed from relying on resource extraction to an emphasis on manufacturing, and presently is emerging as post-industrial and knowledge-based. Pendakur combines an analysis of parliamentary debates on immigration issues with an evaluation of the regulatory and policy changes that resulted from these discussions and an analysis of how the work of immigrants changed over a five-decade. He then provides both a political and quantitative analysis by looking at issues that affect not only immigrants but minorities born in Canada in order to assess the degree to which labour market discrimination exists and whether employment equity programs are needed.
Book Synopsis Do the educational credentials of immigrant and non-immigrant workers make them perfect substitutes for each other in Canadian labour markets by :
Download or read book Do the educational credentials of immigrant and non-immigrant workers make them perfect substitutes for each other in Canadian labour markets written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An aging population and declining birth rates have raised concerns among Canadian policymakers over the future availability of skilled workers in Canada. Regional labour market impacts of this change in the demographic composition of the population have also been affected by the out-migration of population from smaller provinces and rural areas. At provincial and local levels, immigration is increasingly viewed as a tool to address these issues. While attracting skilled immigrants is the main focus of recent regional immigrant policy initiatives, lack of recognition of their credentials in Canadian labour markets is viewed as a significant barrier to their successful integration into the provincial and local Canadian labour force. This integration is necessary to obtain the desired economic outcomes of a wider geographic distribution of immigrants. As a result, federal and provincial governments, as well as non-governmental organizations, are now investing resources to remove this barrier to immigrant integration. While much has been argued in Canadian public and academic circles about the lack of foreign credential recognition in Canadian labour markets, no systematic investigation of this issue has yet been conducted in the literature. Using an economic framework, the present paper attempts to partially fill this gap. While immigrants arriving with high school or less education are found to be perfect substitutes for their non-immigrant counterparts, those arriving with a post-high school education are not.

Book Synopsis Does returning to school after immigration affect labour market outcomes for immigrants?. by :
Download or read book Does returning to school after immigration affect labour market outcomes for immigrants?. written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The datasets used by the project include a range of large-scale surveys such as the Census, the Longitudinal Survey of Immigrants to Canada, the Ethnic Diversity Survey, the Workplace and Employee Survey, the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics, the Labour Force Survey and the Permanent Residents Data System. [...] A study in the Netherlands found that the length of stay in the host country, higher pre-immigration education level, and adverse macroeconomic conditions at arrival were all positively correlated with the enrolment of immigrants in schools following immigration (Tubergen and Werfhorst, 2007). [...] In the case of immigrants returning to school, the longer interruption in their work career, coupled with the fact that immigrants who have not returned to school had already had the opportunity to repair their human capital can result in lower income, higher unemployment rates, and lesser likelihood of holding full-time employment, at least in the first years following their arrival. [...] THE DATA: LONGITUDINAL SURVEY OF IMMIGRANTS TO CANADA This report uses data from the Longitudinal Survey of Immigrants to Canada (LSIC), which was a joint undertaking between Statistics Canada and Citizenship and Immigration Canada under the Policy Research Initiative. [...] The outcomes of the respondents presented in this report may not be comparable to the experiences of immigrants who landed in different time periods.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The successful integration of immigrants into the Canadian labour market is of interest to Canadian public policy and to current and potential immigrants, alike. Using data from the 2006 Census of Population, this report aims to develop a better understanding of the integration of internationally-trained educated immigrants into the Canadian labour market compared to immigrants who completed their education in Canada and the Canadian-born with a postsecondary education. The report presents a socio-demographic profile of internationally-educated immigrants with a postsecondary credential upon their arrival in Canada, and focuses on the integration of internationally-educated immigrants into the Canadian labour market.--Document.
Book Synopsis Reversal of Fortunes Or Continued Success? by : Aneta Bonikowska
Download or read book Reversal of Fortunes Or Continued Success? written by Aneta Bonikowska and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current knowledge about the favourable socioeconomic attainment (in education and earnings) among children of immigrants is based on the experiences of those whose immigrant parents came to Canada before the 1970s. As is well documented in the literature, successive cohorts of adult immigrants have experienced declines in entry earnings. This study looks at whether children of recent cohorts of immigrants also have experienced deterioration in educational attainment and earnings, and whether any such deterioration was associated with changes in their parents' labour market outcomes. Understanding these outcomes is important because children of immigrant parents constitute a large and growing part of the Canadian population. How children of immigrants fare in Canada's economy is also one metric of the longer-term impacts of immigration.--Document.
Book Synopsis Information in the Labour Market by : James B. Davies
Download or read book Information in the Labour Market written by James B. Davies and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1984-12-15 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study uses a simple model of information gathering to generate policy recommendations concerning education in Ontario, especially at the post-secondary level. The schools are viewed as helping students discover jobs matched to their abilities, and policy prescriptions are offered from that standpoint. After examining earlier economic models of education – seeing it in terms of human capital and signalling – the authors analyse their informational model. In the light of the three theories of education, they then proceed to examine the appropriate role of government in the education market, and offer their policy recommendations. In addition, trends in the structure of education over the last two decades are studied and explained from the economic point of view. They argue that too much has been spent on formal education and not enough on on-the-job-training, but the answer is not more government intervention or vocationalism. Education policy should encourage free choice and an increasing ability to match interests or skills with jobs. Vocationalism merely hinders the latter and endangers economic well-being in the long term.
