People without Jobs
Feb 16, 2010
Dr. Rick Miner's report People Without Jobs, Jobs Without People: Ontario's Labour Market Future was released on Feb. 3rd. For the first time, the intersection of two mega-trends -- an aging population and an emerging knowledge economy -- has been examined. The report predicts 700,000 Ontarians will be unemployable by 2021 due to a lack of postsecondary training or credentials. It reinforces many of the issues and concerns the coalition has been speaking about and it provides stark and compelling evidence of the absolute necessity for business, educators, government and industry to act now to address this challenge.
A copy of the report is available here.
