Canadian Labor Market Overview

Statistics Canada has released information on the number of jobs in June 2022. It shows a drop in the unemployment rate to its lowest level since 1976. From this data, let’s find out if this is good or bad and what is happening to the Canadian economy.

Statistics:

Canada has lost 43,200,000 jobs in June 2022, contrary to forecasts of an increase of 22,500. At the same time, the unemployment rate fell to a record low of 4.9%. The number of unemployed stands at 1 million, which is the lowest since 1981. The current economic situation is due to a reduction of almost 100,000 workers.

Reflecting the shortage of workers, the average hourly wage rate rose by 5.2% compared to last May’s figure of 3.9%. This is also the fastest increase in rates since 1997, aside from the pandemic.

What the figures mean

The statistics show that the Canadian economy is facing peak employment and will continue to stay that way as it tries to contain the surge in wages.

“The low unemployment rate shows that the labour market is extremely tight,” said Royce Mendes , head of macroeconomic strategy at Desjardins Securities Inc. in a report to investors. “This was evident from the wages increase figures, which exceeded even the most reckless expectations of a projected acceleration. “

Employment market

Students and researchers at Carleton University presented a study during the IEEE Computers, Software, and Applications Conference, based on a new web platform that allows jobseekers to make informed career decisions based on financial and lifestyle factors.

The study presents employment market intelligence, most of which seems fairly logical. For example, the number of vacancies in provinces with major cities, such as British Columbia, is significantly higher than in provinces without major cities. This is not surprising because a larger population implies more job opportunities.

British Columbia, Quebec, Ontario and Alberta have more vacancies for technical and intermediate jobs than the rest of the country.

In-demand areas for the intermediate level:

  • Medical diagnostics
  • Cosmetology
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Nursing
  • Nutritiology and dietetics
  • Forensic medicine
  • Banking, finance and insurance

It is important to note that Prince Edward Island has a high demand for jobs compared to the size of its population.

According to Canada’s national employment service, Job Bank, skilled workers in the hotel sector and catering market are in highest demand.

Labour shortages in Ontario

Despite a general decline in labour demand, Ontario is still experiencing a severe labour shortage. Therefore, Ontario Prime Minister Doug Ford plans to raise the issues of immigration and labour shortages.

Ontario’s immigration agreement with the federal government expires in the fall, and the province is pushing for more skilled workers and more flexibility in the types of workers it can attract.

According to the Minister of Labour, Monte McNaughton, hundreds of thousands of jobs remain vacant in Ontario, and at great cost to the economy. The province is also pushing to double the number of immigrants under the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program.

But would greater flexibility in responding to the demands of potential migrant workers and an increase in the quota under the provincial program help solve the issue? Partially, yes.  There is a need to make the process of transferring, adapting and motivating foreign workers more accessible and attractive. It is particularly important to set up an operational mechanism for the rapid recruitment of motivated foreign workers.

We are ready to provide this efficient mechanism – the global recruitment and employment platform Joblio. We connect employers directly with qualified candidates and increase the success rate of jobs through our comprehensive ACE program.

Joblio offers four accessible user interfaces for a streamlined and transparent recruitment process, resulting in faster candidate processing, increased job satisfaction and reduced turnover.

In order to recruit as quickly as possible, employers simply send us a job advertisement. We do the rest: we select the best candidates, check their background, help them with the paperwork, meet them, fit them and send them to the workplace.

If you are a company manager, you have probably experienced a shortage of quality labour. The main challenge is to find and hire employees quickly. Joblio can help you recruit motivated employees as we have professionals from 45 markets. Send your job listing to employer@joblio.co and we will help you overcome the labour shortage quickly and efficiently.

Ukrainian Refugees Find Employment In Ontario, Canada Through Joblio Platform

Joblio Inc has today announced that it has successfully secured jobs for the first group of Ukrainian refugees resettled in Canada. The ethical recruitment platform is regarded as the gold standard in the field of cross-border employment and teamed up with Canadian companies to help the refugees find employment across Canada.

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, Joblio has helped Ukrainian refugees fleeing the horrendous conflict to find employment in Canada. Jon Purizhansky, CEO and co-founder of Joblio Inc, has reiterated the company’s commitment to assisting refugees from Ukraine and insists that it will continue to channel its resources to facilitate their rapid introduction into safer countries.

“Our focus at Joblio is to revolutionize migrant assimilation by offering continuous support to help them face unexpected challenges.” – Jon Purizhansky.

Joblio Inc. efficiently handled all aspects of their job hunting process – from the preparation and execution of documents to resume development, search for sponsors, organization of meetings, and search for housing.

To ease the difficult affair of relocation, Starlight Investments came forward to  provide accommodations for resettled refugees, with flexible terms to allow them to build stability without worrying about immediate bills. Founded in 2011, the North American Real Estate firm manages assets on behalf of publicly listed, institutional, and private investors and has reaffirmed its commitment to creating sustainable and modern living spaces where people want to live, work, shop, and play.

“Our hearts and thoughts are with the people of Ukraine, and we will continue to do all we can to support and help them get through these trying times. We understand the challenges of a sudden move abroad and are working together to be as flexible as possible.”

World Will Have to Find Durable Solutions for the Global Refugee Crises

Joblio.Co is a technology powered social impact enterprise that seeks to bring transparency and order into the industry of global labour migration. Its founder Jon Purizhansky is an ex-refugee who says that according to the UNHCR, at least 89.3 million people around the world have been forced to flee their homes. Among them are nearly 27.1 million refugees, around half of whom are under the age of 18. There are also millions of stateless people, who have been denied a nationality and lack access to basic rights such as education, health care, employment and freedom of movement. Ongoing and newly developed conflicts have driven the displacement across the globe.

For example, the conflict in the Tigray region in Ethiopia led to at least 2.5 million more people being displaced within their country, with some 1.5 million of them returning to their homes during the year.

In Afghanistan, the events leading up to the Taliban’s takeover of Kabul in August 2021 resulted in displacement within the country as well as into neighbouring countries. The number of people displaced internally rose for the 15th straight year, even as more than 790,000 Afghans returned during the year.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo, Nigeria, South Sudan, Sudan, the Syrian Arab Republic and Yemen saw increases of between 100,000 and 500,000 people displaced internally in 2021. In last year’s Global Trends report, UNHCR predicted that “the question is no longer if forced displacement will exceed 100 million people – but rather when”. The when is now? With millions of Ukrainians displaced and further displacement elsewhere in 2022, total forced displacement now exceeds 100 million people. This means 1 in every 78 people on earth has been forced to flee – a dramatic milestone that few would have expected a decade ago.

As new refugee situations emerge and intensify, and as existing ones reignite or remain unresolved, there is an acute need for durable solutions at increasing scale. What’s important to realize is that finding solutions for the displaced populations will also create a solution for the corporate world that is experiencing an exponentially growing shortage of talent

There is currently no concerted globally coordinated effort to analyse this populations’ professional backgrounds to see if they can be matched with employers globally who are experiencing dire shortage of staff.

It is because of this lack of global effort to create synergies between corporate employers in the developed world and the displaced populations globally that are few options for regular migration, for the vast majority of refugees and displaced persons. The rest are left to migrate irregularly, stay in the host countries, meaning they either work irregularly or not in their fields of training.

Not just companies, Jon Purizhansky points out, but actually entire countries are now facing skills gaps that are impeding their economic growth. Since the Second World War populations of the developed countries have both aged and have built generational wealth, which is employers report that talent shortages and difficulty filling positions. And the shortages are growing every month. The population of OECD countries is aging at the same their working-age population is shrinking. Without migration, by 2050, OECD countries will need 400 million more workers to maintain the working-age to elderly ratio that underpins their pension and health schemes. These demographics are relatively easy to reliably predict, and yet, to date, little is being done to prepare for this dramatic and unprecedented future. OECD countries are not likely to be able to meet their entire need for new workers by increasing birth rates.

Jon Purizhansky points that with the right kind of support, these shortages may be partially filled by assisting displaced populations and refugees fill the talent void. Migrants need more options for legal migration and companies need more flexible immigration systems so they can recruit internationally when they cannot find the local talent.

Jon Purizhansky says that focusing on human rights of refugees and creating economic opportunities for them benefits not just the refugees but the corporate world as well. Ultimately, the entire ecosystem will benefit as refugees will now move from uncertainty to certainty and will improve their lives economically; the employers will now secure the talent they need from amongst the refugee populations and the governments will benefit from reduction of illegal immigration and tax revenues that will inevitably come about as a result of the improved ecosystem.

As labor shortages will continue to grow, Jon Purizhansky predicts that more and more governments will realise that by creating better future for refugees they will improve their own economies greatly.

How fixing US immigration law can stabilize inflation

U.S. consumers are experiencing a dramatic increase in commodity prices. Currently, U.S. inflation is at 9.1% – the highest since 1981, with the United States Department of Labor ascribing the rise to price increases for fuel, food and housing.

While the country struggles to grapple with the crippling effects of inflation on the economy, in part by blaming the Russian-Ukraine conflict for the disruptions that have no apparent end in sight, one viable solution to the problem lies in fixing the outdated U.S. immigration laws.

Jon Purizhansky: According to a leading global recruitment company, the only way forward is for countries to rely on each other’s strengths to even out their weaknesses. Developed countries are mostly filled with aged citizens who have no interest in working, whereas underdeveloped countries are struggling to keep their population, which is mostly young vibrant individuals without jobs.

The economics are quite simple: lack of labor affects production volume, which in turn reduces supply, causing scarcity that drives up prices. Although countries such as Canada and other European nations have understood that labor shortages will kill their economy and have adjusted their immigration policies to fast-track the admission of qualified migrants, the U.S. continues to operate archaic immigration laws.

The situation is so absurd that while most advanced nations simply require a signed contract with a localized employer to grant you a work visa, recent government data projects that the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will reject up to 82 percent of the H-1B registrations for high-skilled foreign nationals.

In the U.S., H-1B visas represent the only practical way for high-skilled foreign nationals, including international students, to work long-term. However, the annual limit of 85,000 (65,000 plus a 20,000 exemption for advanced degree holders from U.S. universities) caused the USCIS to reject more than 70% of the over 300,000 H-1B registrations for FY 2022.

The U.S. is rejecting hundreds of thousands of high-skilled professionals every year, by operating a faulty immigration policy predicated on flawed economic reasoning. The lump of labor fallacy being championed by Congress posits that job opportunities are fixed, meaning letting more people into the labor market would deprive American citizens of jobs.

As stock prices fall and the cost of commodities continues to rise, only a thorough reform of the current immigration policy will allow the much-needed help to find its way into the U.S. Once employers are allowed to attract foreign labor with work visas like it’s done all over the world, the labor force will be invigorated, production volumes will rise, and supply will match demand, driving down prices and ultimately reversing the upward trend of inflation.

Jon Purizhansky is founder and CEO of Joblio, a global social impact technology platform that assists refugees and labor migrants based in Buffalo.

Fixing Immigration Laws can stabilise Inflation

Jon Purizhansky ( Joblio.co ) says that for months now, consumers in the US have been experiencing an uptick in the prices of groceries and other commodities across the country. In May, the US government reported that inflation had jumped to a record 8.6% — the highest it has been since 1981, with the United States Department of Labor ascribing the rise in CPI to price increases for fuel, food, and housing.

Following the government’s inflation report, stock prices fell terribly as investors speculated on the Federal Reserve’s next move, which might involve hiking interest rates more sharply than expected. Already, the US Central Bank had begun tightening monetary policy in March and is expected to announce another half-point increase in its benchmark rate next week.

While the entire country struggles to grapple with the crippling effects of inflation on the economy — blaming the Russian-Ukraine conflict for the disruptions and market upsets that have no apparent end in sight, Joblio believes that the solution to the problem lies in fixing the outdated immigration laws that currently make it difficult for qualified migrants to join the US labor force.

According to the leading global recruitment company, the world is currently in a tricky situation where the only way forward is for countries to rely on each other’s strengths to even out their weaknesses. Developed countries are mostly filled with aged citizens who spent their youth building generational wealth and have no interest in working, whereas underdeveloped countries are struggling to keep their population under control — mostly filled with young vibrant individuals without jobs.

The economics around the problem is quite simple: lack of labor affects production volume, which in turn reduces supply, causing scarcity and driving up prices. Although countries such as Canada and other European nations have understood that labor shortages will kill their economy and have adjusted their immigration policies to fast-track the admission of qualified migrants into their labor force, the US continues to operate its archaic immigration laws that have turned the country’s borders into inverted funnels.

The situation is so absurd that while most advanced nations simply require a signed contract with a localized employer to grant you a work Visa, recent government data projects that the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will reject up to 82% of the H-1B registrations for high-skilled foreign nationals submitted in the most recent H-1B lottery.

Ex Manpower Group Executive Will Lead Refugee Hire Movement

David Arkless was appointed as Chairman of The Board at Joblio, a technological platform for cross-border employment.

Jon Purizhansky, the CEO of Joblio, announced today that David Arkless will be the Chairman of the Board of the company.

Joblio’s global platform eliminates the need for third parties, and it allows companies to get a more efficient and effective way to hire new workers. It offers a variety of user interfaces that help speed up the hiring process and improve the efficiency of its operations.

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, Jobilio has helped hundreds of Ukrainian refugees fleeing the horrendous conflict to find employment in Canada, Germany, Romania, Poland.

David Arkless has an extensive experience in the HR industry and is regarded as a leading human rights expert.

As Chairman of the Board of Directors of Joblio, David will lead the company’s global expansion.

Joblio’s tech-enabled platform allows companies to conduct talent searches, to hire and manage cross-border workers.

The platform is and will always be free for the workers in accordance with the regulations of the International Labour Organisation.

With over 20 years of experience in international relations, David brings a unique perspective to the Board of Directors of Joblio. He has worked with various governments and international organizations in the UK, China, and the US.

As the Vice-President of the International Confederation of Private Employment Agencies (CIETT), he has been instrumental in the establishment of international initiatives aimed at fighting against human trafficking and slavery.

He is also a founding member of the California Act and the UK Modern Slavery Act. As Chairman of the Board of Directors of Joblio, he will continue to establish the gold standard of ethical and safe employment.

For over 20 years, David has been a significant member of the global HR industry landscape, and now, as the strategic leader of Joblio’s team, he believes that the company’s technology can help end the abuse of foreign and domestic workers. Despite the various initiatives that have been made to address the issue of human trafficking and slavery, the HR industry still has not come up with an effective global framework to protect workers.

Jon Purizhansky, CEO of Joblio: “ David is a recognized expert in the field of human capital management. Joblio managed to tackle an extremely complex operational process of cross-border employment and pack it in a user-friendly experience available on 4 interfaces. Employers in Canada and other countries, that provide employment to Ukrainian refugees, are the pioneers of the ethical employment movement.”

The global labor shortages are putting a strain on the supply chains of companies and organizations. Despite the calls to address these issues, the high churn rates that are affecting the hiring process have prevented employers from finding new workers.

One of the most effective ways to address the issue of labor shortages is by investing in the communities where migrant workers live and work. Through its proprietary program, Joblio is able to provide a more efficient way to recruit and train new workers. The company’s platform is designed to help organizations manage their post-arrival community management.

Joblio’s global platform eliminates the need for third parties, and it allows companies to get a more efficient and effective way to hire new workers. It offers a variety of user interfaces that help speed up the hiring process and improve the efficiency of its operations.

How Work Permits Turn Refugees Into An Economic Lifeline

The ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine has sparked a refugee crisis across Europe that threatens the largest humanitarian disaster since World War II. Nevertheless, the worst outcomes can still be avoided with sound work policies that teach companies the best practices for hiring Ukrainians. Fair work opportunities turn refugees into good neighbors.

Work permits, an ethical housing policy, and private-public partnerships can be used to avoid the worst humanitarian outcomes. Here’s how policy and humanity are coming together in Canada, Germany, and elsewhere to ensure refugees are an asset to society, not a burden.

Refugees Need Opportunity, Not Charity

The United Nations notes that well over 5 million Ukrainians have become refugees since February, with experts now predicting that the conflict will generate approximately 8.3 million refugees by the end of this year. Torn from their homes by the terrors of war, these refugees are on the move across Europe and over the Atlantic to find new opportunities in places like Germany, Poland, and Canada. Figuring out how to hire Ukrainains is now a top priority for many businesses in these countries facing a long-standing worker shortage.

The European community needs a sensible work policy to ensure these civilians receive the help they desperately deserve. While some opponents of humanitarian resettlement falsely argue that refugees are a burden on society, business owners and government officials alike increasingly recognize the immense value in helping refugees get back on their own feet.

“Refugees who are given adequate housing and fair work opportunities always give back to the societies that take them in,” notes global relocation expert and Joblio CEO Jon Purizhansky. “With sensible policies and clear integration goals, any society can avert humanitarian disaster and bolster up its own ailing economy.”

The best practices for hiring Ukrainian refugees are based on generosity and understanding.  In Germany and elsewhere in the EU, refugees entering the Schengen area can stay for up to 90 days without work and even longer once employment is secured. The Council of the EU and other authorities are already hard at work extending these policies to ensure Ukrainians can stay for longer. Once work is secured, Ukrainians begin giving back to the king societies that welcomed them in during a time of need.

Providing Fair Work Produces The Best Outcomes

The only surefire way to ensure refugees don’t fall into economic insecurity is by providing them with fair work opportunities. Even before the recent crisis, Germany and Poland were competing with one another over valuable Ukrainian migrant labourers who could fill vacant positions in a wide range of economic sectors. One survey by the EWL Group discovered that as many as 63% of displaced Ukrainians seek Polish work, with 30% indicating they’d stay in the country for a long time if they had adequate employment.

According to the EWL Group, the supermajority of these respondents were Ukrainian women, and most of them were college or university graduates. Polish companies that hire and resettle Ukrainains in need of a helping hand will benefit in the long run by tapping into this talented pool of educated employees. Ukrainians are already showcasing the potential of Ukrainian labour in the Polish and German economies.

An independent Polish news outlet reports that over 30,000 Ukrainians have already found good jobs in Poland. They’re especially needed in the health sector, but can also find use for their talents in the education, hospitality, and caregiving sectors. The best practices for hiring Ukrainians are quickly being adopted by smart companies with an eye on the future.

“Once they’re given a place to live, assistance with childcare, and fair wages for honest work, Ukrainian refugees can become an unparalleled engine of economic growth,” says Jon Purizhansky. “By training Ukrainian migrants today, countries like Poland and Germany will reap great economic and humanitarian rewards for generations to come.”

We Need More Fast-Tracks To Employment

No one country can solve this crisis alone. We need more fast-tracks to employment across the European Union and North America to ensure no Ukrainians are left behind. Across the Atlantic, Canada offers another example of how to make the best of this crisis with work permits and housing opportunities instead of restrictive policies. The best practices for hiring Ukrainains in Canada should be adopted everywhere.

That requires government investment in the streamlining of the work-visa permit process. To do that, governments can rely on expert private partners like Joblio, a global relocation platform that ensures migrants find safe and sustainable work abroad. Founded by a refugee turned successful entrepreneur, Joblio understands the plight of refugees and has already launched a program to help businesses hire Ukrainian women and manage the training of Ukrainian migrants.

This program is already yielding results for Ukrainians and Canadians alike thanks to Joblio’s new pilot program with a consortium of 12 Canadian companies. The first Ukrainian workers will be arriving one June 1st, ready and eager to fill vacant positions across Canada. Canada isn’t alone, either; the United States has launched the “Uniting for Ukraine” initiative that allows Ukrainian migrant labourers to stay temporarily in a two-year period of parole with the help of an American sponsor. Joblio has already secured 2,500 sponsorship opportunities for Ukrainians yearning to come to the United States so that they can contribute to its economy and their own upward mobility.“

Hardworking Ukrainians are ready to give back to Poland, Germany, Canada, and the United States,” says global relocation expert and Joblio CEO Jon Purizhansky. “Companies interested in learning how to hire Ukrainians can contact Joblio at no cost to avert a humanitarian disaster and fill worker shortages.”
