Recent youth labour market experiences in Canada / by Gordon Betcherman, René Morissette.: CS11-0019/63E-PDF

"The labour market experiences of Canadian youth improved during the 1980s when measured by the absolute and relative unemployment rate, the participation rate, the employment-to-population ratio, and the incidence of involuntary part-time work. However, with the onset of the 1990-92 recession, youth labour market outcomes have deteriorated considerably. In addition to the difficulties stemming from macroeconomic conditions, young workers face continuing problems getting access to well-paid, entry-level jobs in the goods sector and certain service industries."--Abstract.
