https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2010/11/working-paper-2010-27-2/
In Canada, temporary workers account for 14 per cent of jobs in the non-farm business sector, are present in a range of industries, and account for 40 per cent of the total job reallocation. Yet most models of job reallocation abstract from temporary workers.2010-11-07T15:25:27+00:00enStability versus Flexibility: The Role of Temporary Employment in Labour Adjustment2010-11-07Labour marketsProductivityWorking Paper 2010-27 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/wp10-27.pdfStability versus Flexibility: The Role of Temporary Employment in Labour AdjustmentShutao CaoDanny LeungNovember 2010DD2D24JJ3J32The Effect of Exchange Rate Movements on Heterogeneous Plants: A Quantile Regression Analysis
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2010/10/working-paper-2010-25/
In this paper, we examine how the effect of movements in the real exchange rate on manufacturing plants depends on the plant's placement within the productivity distribution. Appreciations of the local currency expose domestic plants to more competition from abroad as export opportunities shrink and import competition intensifies.2010-10-21T14:02:43+00:00enThe Effect of Exchange Rate Movements on Heterogeneous Plants: A Quantile Regression Analysis2010-10-21Exchange ratesMarket structure and pricingProductivityWorking Paper 2010-25https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/wp10-25.pdfThe Effect of Exchange Rate Movements on Heterogeneous Plants: A Quantile Regression AnalysisBen TomlinLoretta FungOctober 2010DD2D21FF1LL1L16L6L60Exchange Rate Fluctuations, Plant Turnover and Productivity
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2010/07/working-paper-2010-18/
In a small open economy fluctuations in the real exchange rate can affect plant turnover, and thus aggregate productivity, by altering the makeup of plants that populate the market. An appreciation of the local currency increases the level of competition in the domestic market as import competition intensifies and export opportunities shrink, forcing less productive plants from the market and compelling new entrants to be more competitive than they otherwise would have been.2010-07-16T12:00:46+00:00enExchange Rate Fluctuations, Plant Turnover and Productivity2010-07-16Exchange ratesMarket structure and pricingProductivityWorking Paper 2010-18https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/wp10-18.pdfExchange Rate Fluctuations, Plant Turnover and ProductivityBen TomlinJuly 2010DD2D21D24LL1L11Relative Price Movements and Labour Productivity in Canada: A VAR Analysis
