Women who work in seniors’ homes : work-related injuries and illnesses and retention rates before the COVID-19 pandemic / by René Morissette and Hanqing Qiu.CS36-28-0001/2025-1-4E-PDF

"The study shows that up to 14% of women who worked in seniors’ homes in 2016 left the health care and social assistance sector that year, while up to 21% left the nursing and residential care facilities subsector. The leaving rate of women in seniors’ homes in 2016 is higher than the overall leaving rate of 12% observed when considering all industries. Women who earned relatively low wages, were not unionized or had low job tenure were generally more likely than others to leave. All else equal, immigrant women were less likely to leave than Canadian-born women"--Abstract, page 1.
