Abstract

Aucunes données mesurant directement le nombre d'emplois vacants au Canada ne sont recueillies depuis l'Enquête sur les postes vacants menée par Statistique Canada de 1971 à 1978. Nous tâchons de combler cette lacune à l'aide de données provenant de l'Enquête sur le milieu de travail et les employés (EMTE). Nous examinons les facteurs déterminants des postes vacants au niveau de l'emplacement. Nous constatons que les milieux de travail ayant des taux de vacance élevés entrent dans l'une de deux catégories : 1) ceux qui innovent, emploient une main-d'oeuvre hautement qualifiée, adoptent de nouvelles technologies ayant pour effet d'accroître les compétences requises, sont appelés à soutenir une concurrence importante sur le plan international et se trouvent aux prises avec un marché du marché du travail local serré, et 2) ceux qui ne sont pas syndiqués, mènent des activités dans le secteur du commerce de détail et autres services aux consommateurs et ne font pas partie d'une entreprise à emplacements multiples. Par conséquent, le secteur de la haute technologie n'affiche pas une part importante des postes vacants. Plus de 40 % de tous les postes vacants et 50 % des postes vacants à long terme se trouvent dans les secteurs du commerce au détail et autres services aux consommateurs.
