    • Labor Market Analysis
    • Canadian Immigration Policy

    Background:

    • Analysis of temporary worker flows to Canada from 1973-1985.
    • Utilizes previously unpublished data and novel analytical measures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine key developments in temporary worker admissions to Canada.
    • To assess the labor market impact of these flows using person-year equivalents.
    • To investigate the trend of exemptions from standard admission procedures.

    Main Methods:

    • Conversion of employment authorizations to person-years for impact assessment.
    • Analysis of unpublished data from Employment and Immigration Canada.

    Main Results:

    • Significant and increasing proportion of temporary worker admissions were exempted from governmental procedures.
    • These exemptions reduced the direct linkage between temporary worker admission and the Canadian labor market.
    • The study quantifies the scale of temporary worker flows and their labor market implications.

    Conclusions:

    • Temporary worker programs evolved significantly between 1973 and 1985.
    • Exemptions from standard procedures became a notable feature, impacting labor market integration.
    • Policy implications of these trends require further consideration.
