These are supplemented by a number of suggestions for improvements in existing labour adjustment programs.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changes in traditional patterns and structures of work, along with traditional notions of employment security, create pressures on both managers and workers to adapt to new forces for change, and to adjust to evolving workplace realities. This report is the outcome of over a year of joint business and labour research and consultation on that challenge to adjust, particularly as it applies to the changing relationship of human resources to economic activity. The primary focus is on the roles, practices, and interactions of public and private employers and labour, as the principal labour market players in adjustment, with special emphasis on the sectoral and workplace levels. In addition, the role of governments in establishing public policy relating to adjustment and/or in facilitating adjustment is considered, along with the practices of governments as employers in providing instructive models of adjustment. Innovative responses to change are illustrated with reference to case studies.

Book excerpt: Faced with increased levels of international competition and mounting budget deficits some developed, Western economies have responded by introducing trade restrictions. This book uses a comparative analysis of eight leading industrial nations (including Japan, the United States, West Germany and Britain) to demonstrate that such policies are mistaken. Alternatives to trade restrictions, including subsidies for industries and labour-market policy instruments are also shown to have their drawbacks, and the book emphasises the need for countries to find and exploit policies which fulfil their own political and social needs but which are least injurious to their trading partners.

Book excerpt: The Canadian economy is undergoing profound and continuous structural changes that are re-ordering not only the basis of economic activity in this country, but also the relationships between business, labour and government. The process of economic restructuring requires changes in institutions and organizations to make an effective transition to a new economic environment. This report is a recognition that we have to search for better ways of working together. This report aims to provide advice to governments on how best they can promote and support business-labour approaches to economic restructuring. The report is organized into two main parts. The first section outlines a set of general principles developed by the CLMPC Economic Restructuring Committee common to successful joint business-labour initiatives. The second part puts forth a set of 12 recommendations on the roles of government in supporting business-labour approaches to economic restructuring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper measures different aspects of labor market change that the Canadian economy has absorbed since 1970 by examining three separate measures of change and relating them to one another. The first set of measures examines the extent of employment shifts between industries, the second consists of job-change measures that capture the extent of employment growth and decline as a result of changes in producer employment levels, and the third set examines the size of and reasons for worker separations. The paper begins with a review of recent studies on inter- and intra-industry change and then quantifies some of the pressures placed on the Canadian labor force by change, in a way that overcomes the deficiencies in the reviewed literature. It then presents and discusses the results of the measurements of labor market change in the Canadian manufacturing sector.
