Structural Determinants of the Natural Rate of Unemployment in Canada
Author: International Monetary Fund
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1451979983
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
This paper presents empirical estimates of the policy and structural determinants of the natural rate of unemployment in Canada. The paper begins with a discussion of structural features of the economy which impinge on the adjustment of real wages to their equilibrium level. Estimates are presented showing how the generosity of the unemployment insurance system is related to past levels of unemployment. The empirical results indicate that government policies have been largely responsible for changes in the natural rate, and hence can contribute to a reduction in the natural rate in the medium term.

Can a Matching Model Explain the Long-run Increase in Canada's Unemployment Rate? [electronic Resource]
Author: Bank of Canada
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780662270485
Category : Unemployment
Languages : en
Pages : 63
Book Description
This paper attempts to quantify the contribution of observed changes in Canada's unemployment insurance (UI) system to the increased unemployment rate observed in the late 1970s and 1980s. The study uses a calibrated general equilibrium model of the Canadian economy which combines the standard representative agent growth model with a matching model of the labour market. Alternative explanations are considered for the higher unemployment rate, and the relative importance of changes in the UI system is evaluated. In particular, the paper studies the role of layoff costs and distortionary taxes. To put the effects of policy variables in perspective, the effects of the slowdown in total factor productivity growth are examined.
