An increase in outmigration and declining in-migration led to annual population declines in the late 1990s. 970,

Other indicators of consumer confidence such as housing starts are also strong. $

8 Employment employment in thousands 1992 to 2000 Average annual growth of 1.0% 2000 to 2003: 0.1% With the exception of the unprecedented drop in 2001, employment has grown at a reasonable pace in the past decade. From 1992 to 2000, employment grew at an average annual rate of 1% per year. From 2000 to 2003, there has been virtually no change in employment; two years were required to recover the 13,000 jobs lost in

9 Employment and the Labour Force

10 Definitions Not in the labour force 240,000 Unemployed 29,000 Adult (15 and older) Population in Saskatchewan, 2003 Employed 487,000 The labour market data is all based on a telephone survey of individuals - the Labour Force Survey (LFS) - conducted monthly by Statistics Canada. Approximately 5,000 Sask residents take part in the LFS every month. The survey excludes those who live on Indian Reserves. Statistics Canada classifies all persons 15 years of age or older into one of three categories: employed: working full-time or parttime, as a paid worker or selfemployed unemployed: not working but actively seeking employment not in the labour force: everybody else About one half of those not in the labour force are retired seniors. 10

11 Inter-provincial Comparisons Average Annual Employment Increase Canada Manitoba Saskatchewan Saskatchewan s employment growth rate of 1.0% from 1992 to 2000 was below the national average but still respectable. The 0.1% average annual increase since 2000 is the lowest in Canada. Alberta 0.0% 0.5% 1.0% 1.5% 2.0% 2.5% 3.0% 1992 to to

12 Characteristics of Jobs - Hours of Work Average Annual Employment Increase Full time In 2003, 23% of persons employed were working part time. Part time In the early period to full time jobs were replacing part time ones. Since 2000, the increase has been in part time jobs. Multiple job holders -3% -2% -1% 0% 1% 2% 1992 to to 2003 Saskatchewan has the highest proportion of multiple job holders (persons with two or more jobs simultaneously) in Canada but the incidence is declining. In 2003, 8% of the employed had two or more jobs. 12

13 Characteristics of Jobs - Industry Employment by Industry of "Main" Job thousands non-agriculture In effect, employment in the province increases when the non-agricultural sector can absorb the ongoing loss of agriculture jobs. Employment in agriculture accounted for 10% of the total in 2003 compared with 18% in agriculture Employment in nonagricultural industry groups increased by 1.8% per year from 1992 to 2000 and 1.3% per year from 2000 to Note that the industry is based on the main job for multiple job holders. 13

14 Characteristics of Jobs - Non-Agriculture Industries Average Annual Employment Change Resources Construction Manufacturing Transportation, warehousing Wholesale and retail trade Finance, insurance, real estate Professional, technical, business services Health and social services Education services 1992 to to 2003 Accommodation and food Information, culture, recreation Other services Public administration -2,000-1,500-1, ,000 1,500 2,000 14

15 Characteristics of the Employed - Gender Employment by Gender 275 thousands Employment among women is increasing more quickly than among men Part (but not all) of the reason is the nature of the industry growth. That is, the fastest growing sectors are those where women are more likely to be employed, e.g. 200 health and social services education 175 information, culture, recreation

16 Characteristics of the Employed - Age Average Annual Employment Increase 15 to to 39 In the past ten to fifteen years, the bulge in the population called the baby boom generation has moved from their forties to their early fifties. 40 to plus -3% -2% -1% 0% 1% 2% 3% 4% 1992 to to 2003 The growth in employment among those 40 to 54 is a natural consequence of the aging of the population. The growth among those 55 and older in the past three years is because of higher participation in the labour force. 16

17 Characteristics of the Employed - Education Level Employment: 25 to 64 Years of Age thousands All of the employment growth since 1990 has been among those with a post-secondary education Post secondary graduates In 2002, over 85% of those 25 to 64 and with a post-secondary education were employed. This compares with 61% of those with less than Grade 12. Grade 12, some post-secondary Less than grade

19 Employment by Region

20 Saskatchewan s Economic Regions North/Far North For the purposes of the LFS, the province is divided into five rural and two urban economic regions. West Central Saskatoon CMA East Central Regina CMA Southwest Southeast 20

25 Employment Outlook The provincial economy can be viewed as having four drivers. Consumers are the largest driver but consumer spending is expected to slow after several years of increasing consumer debt. The public sector is in a period of restraint for the short term as expenditures exceed revenues at both the provincial and municipal levels. The private sector is poised for a recovery after several years of belowaverage performance. The national and international marketplace is volatile because of the US election and the rising Canadian dollar. Based on this combination of factors, economic growth in 2004 and 2005 will probably be below average. Employment growth in 2004 is forecast at less than 1%. Over the long term, the province s prospects are bright although the retiring baby boomers will put pressure on the labour market. Skilled workers will be increasingly hard to come by; more new entrants to the labour market will be Aboriginal. 25

26 East Central Economic Region

27 Regional Characteristics 30% 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% Age Distribution in 2001 Rural* Saskatchewan East Central Region Under to to to to & older Compared with other rural areas in 2001, that is excluding the Regina and Saskatoon CMAs, the East Central region s population is different in a number of ways. The population is concentrated in older age groups. People are less likely to live in a large urban centre, i.e. the region is more rural. A high proportion of dwellings (87%) are single detached houses and 77% are without a mortgage. There are relatively few (12%) lone parent families. The population is stable - 71% did not change their address from 1996 to * Saskatchewan population not including Regina and Saskatoon CMAs 27

28 Regional Characteristics (continued) Employment Growth, 1991 to 2001 Agriculture/forestry Other primary Manufacturing/construction Retail/wholesale trade Public sector services Accomodation and food services Other private sector services East Central Region Rural* Saskatchewan -40% -20% 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% * provincial total not including the Regina and Saskatoon CMAs The Aboriginal population is 11% of the total compared with 17% in other rural areas. The region s immigrant population (3.2% of the total) are more likely to have come to Canada before % did so. Polish and Ukrainian ancestry are much more common. Educational attainment levels are below average. Average farm size is 1,005 acres compared with 1,283 in other rural areas. They are also smaller in terms of capitalization and revenue. Employment growth in the service sector, private sector services in particular, has lagged behind the provincial average. 28

31 Characteristics of those Not Employed

32 Definitions Not in the labour force 240,000 Unemployed 29,000 Adult (15 and older) Population in Saskatchewan, 2003 Employed 487,000 The labour market data is all based on a telephone survey of individuals - the Labour Force Survey (LFS) - conducted monthly by Statistics Canada. Approximately 5,000 Sask residents take part in the LFS every month. The survey excludes those who live on Indian Reserves. Statistics Canada classifies all persons 15 years of age or older into one of three categories: employed: working full-time or parttime, as a paid worker or selfemployed unemployed: not working but actively seeking employment not in the labour force: everybody else About one half of those not in the labour force are retired seniors. 32

33 Not Employed: Socioeconomic Characteristics The characteristics of the 120,300 Sask residents who were, in 2002, in the 20 to 64 age group and were not working were obtained from LFS data. (Remember that the LFS doesn t include the Reserve population.) Some key features are: 62% were women; 28% were 20 to 29 years of age; 29% were 55 or older; 15% were attending school; 48% live in households where no one is employed; 33% had less than grade 12 and two thirds of these were 35 or older; 19% were unemployed, that is, actively seeking employment; 37% had worked in the past year, 52% had worked but not for at least a year, 11% had never had a job; and about one half of those who worked in the past year were laid off, the rest left voluntarily. 33

34 Family Status of those Not Employed, 2002 Lone parents under 50 7% All others 21% Neither employed, 50 or older 15% Men in families with wife employed 10% Unattached individuals 17% Women where husband is employed, no young children 13% Women in families with children under 18 17% One quarter to a third of the family situations involve young children and a parent that is probably staying at home to look after them. Another quarter seem to be retirees and women who have never been in the labour force. Many of the remaining potential employees are young adults, some of whom are going to school. 34

35 Labour Market Studies The Labour Market Trends report mentioned in the binders is currently being updated. This report projects a declining non- Aboriginal labour force as the baby boomers retire. Research for the Public Service Commission and the Crown Investment Corporation documents the aging of public sector employees. The Regional Employment Trends in Saskatchewan for 2003 may be updated for Regional profiles (using census data) for the DCRE regions and regional college regions are being prepared. 35
