Effects of benefit rate reduction and changes in entitlement (Bill C-113) on unemployment, job search behaviour and new job qualityby Stephen R. G. Jones. : LU2-153/213-1995E

This paper investigates the effects of Bill C-113... on the durations of unemployment spells, the job-search behaviour of the unemployed, and the quality of new jobs (as measured by wages and hours worked) found after an unemployment spell. The study focuses primarily on a comparison of two groups: individuals who were subject to the legislation in effect prior to Bill C-113 (the Before sample); and those who had to cope with the Bill's less generous unemployment insurance (UI) provisions (the After sample).--Abstract
