Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores the causes of recent changes in Canadian job stability. Using the Labour Force Survey master files (1977-2010), I find that the increases in job stability first observed in the 1990s were, in fact, long lasting. Results indicate that compositional changes and the increased job stability of women within age and education groups play important roles in explaining the aggregate job stability patterns that emerge. La source des nouvelles tendances de stabilité de l'emploi au Canada. Ce texte examine les causes des changements récents dans la stabilité de l'emploi au Canada. A l'aide des fichiers maîtres de l'Enquête sur la population active, on découvre que les accroissements dans la stabilité observés d'abord dans les années 1990 ont perduré. Les résultats indiquent que les changements dans la composition de la main d'œuvre et la stabilité accrue de l'emploi des femmes pour les divers groupes d'âge et de niveau d'éducation jouent des rôles importants dans l'explication des tendances de stabilité agrégée de l'emploi qu'on a observés.
Book Synopsis Changes in Job Tenure and Job Stability in Canada by : Andrew Heisz
Download or read book Changes in Job Tenure and Job Stability in Canada written by Andrew Heisz and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using monthly data from the Canadian Labor Force Survey, the author investigates changes in the complete lengths of new job spells from 1981 through 1994. While the average complete length of new jobs did not increase or decrease over the period, changes in the distribution of complete job lengths suggest that there is an increase in the proportion of short-term jobs and a decrease in the proportion of medium-term jobs created over the period. The proportion of long-term jobs remained unchanged. This pattern of change was found among virtually all demographic subgroups examined suggesting that an economy-wide (rather than a sectoral or demographic) explanation must be sought.

This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The main contribution of this dissertation is measuring and explaining the increase in instability in the career trajectories of Canadian, British and German workers. The motivation behind this project is solving the contradiction between two bodies of literature. On one hand, a large body of scholarship has focused on the shift away from the standard employment relationship and towards precarious work since the 1980s. This literature studies how the adoption of flexible employment practices by employers has led to decreased job and employment security. On the other hand, many empirical studies in OECD countries suggest that jobs have on average remained relatively stable over the past four decades, as measured by the probability of job separation or average job tenure duration. This would seem to contradict the claims made in the precarious work literature.The results presented in the three empirical chapters rely on survey microdata to show important shifts in job stability patterns in Canada, the UK and Germany. These results identify a clear decrease in job stability since the 1980s in Canada (Chapter 2) and in the UK (Chapter 3) for men in the private sector. Like in the US, this decrease is observed in parallel to an increase in job stability among women, generally associated with their greater job attachment especially around childbirth. In Germany, the results presented in Chapter 3 show evidence of a polarization of job instability, consistent with the dualization literature in comparative political economy. This trend is partly driven by differences between core and peripheral sectors of the economy and insider-outsider dynamics underpinned by German industrial relations and skill formation institutions. It is also driven by gendered dynamics that appear to be rooted in German male breadwinner family regime and recent family and labour market policy reforms. This leads to findings of an increase in the share of women with short-term jobs in Germany, in contrast with Canada and the UK. Finally, the fourth chapter of this dissertation develops a new method to obtain reliable estimates of the changing importance of lifetime jobs. Lifetime jobs are generally identified as a central feature of the career model of the postwar labour market. In contrast, flexible employment and unstable jobs predominant in the new economy are often associated with boundaryless careers. In order to provide a more precise empirical evidence of the changing importance of lifetime jobs, a new cohort-based measure using cross-sectional data is developed and evaluated. The results show that lifetime jobs, defined as jobs lasting for the majority of a worker’s active life, were rare even in the postwar economy, in contrast with the descriptions provided by some of the sociological literature. The share of workers who held a lifetime job in the UK appears stable over time, while the share of long-term jobs declined.More generally, this dissertation highlights three important points. First, the use of different measures of job stability should aim to produce complementary rather than competing evidence. Second, several important transformations of the economy and of labour force characteristics have unfolded in parallel to flexibilization and to the increased attachment of women to the labour market. Research on the relationship between employer practices and career trajectories should be designed in a way that allows the removal of the impact of those transformations on the estimates of change over time. Third, relatively different trends in job stability may be observed across countries for reasons associated with institutional arrangements and reform trajectories, highlighting the relevance of adopting a perspective rooted in comparative political economy for the study of job stability"--

Download or read book The Causes and Consequences of Increasing Inequality written by Finis Welch and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2001-06-15 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the economic boom of the 1990s, the gap between the wealthy and the poor in the United States is growing larger. While ample evidence exists to validate perceived trends in wage, income, and overall wealth disparity, there is little agreement on the causes of such inequality and what might be done to alleviate it. This volume draws together a panel of distinguished scholars who address these issues in terms comprehensible to noneconomists. Their findings are surprising, suggesting that factors such as trade imbalances, immigration rates, and differences in educational resources do not account for recent increases in the inequality of wealth and earnings. Rather, the contributors maintain that these discrepancies can be attributed to workplace demand for high-skilled labor. They also insist that further research must examine the organization of industry in order to better understand the concurrent devaluation of manual labor. Addressing a topic that is of considerable public interest, this collection helps move the issue of increasing economic inequality in America to the center of the public policy arena.

Book excerpt: "Data from the Labour Force Survey covering the period from 1976 to 2018 is used to report on trends in labour mobility (the likelihood of starting a new job) and job stability (the likelihood that a job will continue for a prescribed length of time) of Canadian men and women aged 20 to 54. It addresses how the patterns in new hires and job stability contribute to our understanding of gender wage gap in Canada"--Supplied by publisher.

Book excerpt: Using data from the 1976-2001 Canadian Labour Force Survey, we examine the stability of currently held jobs and find no period-long drop in job stability. However, job stability declined across the 1980s and rose across the 1990s for workers with less than one year of tenure. When 1987 and 1995 are compared, it can be seen that job stability was steady in Canada but fell slightly in the United States, with the difference concentrated among medium tenured workers. We suggest that this difference was due to a slower recovery in Canada in the 1990s, which caused Canadian workers to be less mobile.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines whether there has been increasing job instability, which can be manifested either in an increase in the risk of permanent layoffs or as a decrease in job tenure. For Canada, one study found that the share of permanent layoffs in all layoffs rose only marginally during the 1990s recession, and a second noted that the probability of a worker being permanently laid off had not increased in the early 1990s. Other studies found no change in average job tenure but new jobs have become increasingly polarized into short-term and long-term ones. While permanent layoffs continued to be lower in the services sector than the goods sector, recent evidence shows that the relative layoff rate is rising marginally in parts of the services sector. For the U.S., the results are similar. Job tenure has been fairly stable over the past two decades. It had been hypothesized that the frequency of displacement increased between the '80s and the '90s but the data do not show this. The underlying data are described and two data gaps are noted.
