    Labour Market Flows and Worker Trajectories in Canada during COVID-1We use the confidential-use files of the Labour Force Survey (LFS) to study the employment dynamics in Canada from the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic through to mid-summer. Using the longitudinal dimension of this dataset, we measure the size of worker reallocation, and document the presence of high labour market churning, that persists even after the easing of social-distancing restrictions. As of July, many of the recent job losers - especially those who had been temporarily laid-off between February and April - have regained employment. However, this apparent strong recovery dynamics hides important heterogeneity, and large groups of workers, such as those who were not employed prior to the pandemic, face important difficulties with finding a job. Three factors appear to be key in accounting for the incomplete employment recovery of July: (1) the unusually high separation flows that characterize the labour market in the reopening phase; (2) the low reemployment probability of recent job losers who were classified as out of the labour force during the lockdown; and (3), the low job-finding rate of individuals who were out of work prior to the pandemic. Our results further suggest that gross job losses were higher among women and young workers during the shutdown, and that older workers were more likely to leave the labour force when the economy reopened.

    The goal of our paper is to better understand the economic implications of Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) programs as well as comprehend the underlying reasons for the rapid expansion of the number of TFWs hired by employers under the Canadian program brought to light in 2014. We present an efficiency wage model that allows for the possibility that a firm, unable to find a worker after advertising for a period of time, may hire a TFW at the advertised wage. Due to the assumed lower outside option for the TFW than the domestic worker, the TFW will exert higher effort than a domestic worker even if the TFW is paid the same wage as would have been paid to a domestic worker. In equilibrium, lower wage offers are made to less-skilled domestic workers when a TFW program of this kind is in place. The model also implies higher unemployment rates for domestic workers after the introduction of a TFW program. Our empirical analysis is based on the confidential master files of the Canadian Census (1991-2006) and the Labour Force Survey (2006-2013). We find that TFWs in Canada work longer hours, have lower rates of absenteeism, and are less likely to be laid off, consistent with higher effort in our model. Moreover, TFWs work at lower wage rates than domestic workers even for similar job characteristics, which is also a prediction of our model.

    This paper proposes an empirical approach to decompose the distributional effects of minimum wages into effects for workers moving out of employment, workers moving into employment, and workers continuing in employment. We estimate the effects of the minimum wage on the hazard rate for wages, which provides a convenient way of re-scaling the wage distribution to control for possible employment effects. We find that minimum wage increases do not result in an abnormal concentration of Job Leavers below the new minimum wage, which is inconsistent with employment effects predicted by a neoclassical model. We also find that, for Job Stayers, the spike and spillover effects of the minimum wage are simply shifted right to the new minimum wage. Our findings are consistent with a model where entry wages are set according to a job ladder, and where firms preserve their internal wage structure due to fairness or internal incentives issues.

    We investigate differences in quit, layoff and hiring rates in high versus low minimum wage regimes using Canadian data spanning 1979 to 2008. The data include consistent questions on job tenure and reason for job separation for the whole period. Over the same time frame, there were over 140 minimum wage changes in Canada. We find that higher minimum wages are associated with lower hiring rates but also with lower job separation rates. Importantly, the reduced separation rates are due mainly to reductions in layoffs, occur in the first 6 months of a job, and are present for unskilled workers of all ages. Our estimates imply that a 10% increase in the minimum wage generates a 3.9% reduction in the layoff rate. We present a search and matching model that fits with these patterns and test its implications. Overall, our results imply that jobs in higher minimum wage regimes are more stable but harder to get.

    With the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic, labour-force survey non-response rates have surged in many countries. We show that in the case of Canada, the bulk of this increase can be explained by the suspension of in-person interviews following the adoption of telework in Federal agencies, including Statistics Canada. Individuals with vulnerabilities to the Covid-19 economic shock-i.e., the young, low-educated, lowsalary, low job-tenure individuals, and those working in occupations with low telework potential-have been harder to reach and have been gradually less and less represented in the Canadian Labour Force Survey (LFS) during the pandemic. Using exogenous variation in the assignment of individuals to the different LFS rotations, we present evidence suggesting that the decline in employment and labour-force participation have been underestimated over the March-July 2020 period. We believe, however, that these non-response biases have been moderate when contrasted with the unprecedented severity of the Covid-19 disruption. Furthermore, since attrition only represents a minor part of the non-response increase, we argue that one should not expect additional difficulties when using panels as compared to cross-sectional samples, and when using public-use LFS files instead of restricted-access files. All in all, the LFS remains a reliable data source for analyzing the economic impact of Covid-19 in a timely manner.
