Transitions et précarité de l'emploi

Analyzes employment transitions and precarity for the period 1988-89 using Statistics Canada data including age, gender, education, and students relative to other groups. Concludes that young people have the most difficulty entering the labour market, gender made little difference, people in the middle range of education that did not complete degrees are more affected than those at the extremes, and that part-time students are the most affected. Also concludes that Ontario was the least affected region, that large firms were less affected, that the tertiary employment and primary occupational sectors appeared to be more favoured, and that those without employment protection but with a pension plan also appeared to be more fortunate.
