Amazing Canadian Job Growth in
2005
B.C. leads Canada in job growth for 2005
Our jobless rate is at a 25-year low, while youth unemployment is the
lowest ever, StatsCan says
Saturday, October 08, 2005
British Columbia is posting the strongest employment
growth of any province in 2005 leaving the provincial unemployment rate at
a 25-year low and youth unemployment at an all-time low, federal reports
released Friday show.
Robert Mattioli, an economist with Service Canada (formerly known as Human
Resources Development), said that is the lowest that overall
unemployment has been since January, 1981, when the number of jobless
dropped to 5.5 per cent.
Jock Finlayson, executive vice-president of the Business Council of B.C.,
said rising youth employment is a natural result of the overall employment
picture, which has, by Statistics Canada's Count, seen B.C. add 65,000
new jobs to the workforce in the last 12 months -- a growth rate of 3.1
per cent year-over-year.
"The kind of numbers we're seeing are indicative of an overall labour
scarcity," Finlayson said. "And one of the things you would expect to
happen when that occurs is a gradual drop in youth unemployment."
Mattioli said the sectors that tend to employ youth -- retail and
wholesale trade, culture and recreation -- both posted gains in September.
In the past year, the trade sector showed the biggest gain in jobs
adding 27,900 new positions.
Construction created 18,400 new jobs over the past year, which was just
ahead of the education sector, which saw 13,400 additional positions.
Mattioli said other signs of strength in the job market were that
full-time employment increased by 4,100 in September hinting that people
are shifting up from part-time, and private-sector paid employment rose
while self employment dropped.
