Canadian jobs and firm size : do smaller firms pay less? / by René Morissette.: CS11-0019/35E-PDF

"Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in small firms. Many studies have shown that small firms are responsible for a substantial portion of the jobs newly created over the last decade in Canada. This naturally raises the following question: how do jobs in small firms compare with those held in larger firms. Are they less likely to be unionized? Are they less likely to be covered by a pension plan? Are they more likely to be terminated by a permanent layoff? Do they pay lower wages?"--Abstract.
