Structural change and the adjustment process : perspectives on firm growth and worker turnover / John R. Baldwin, Paul K. Gorecki. : EC22-166/1990E-PDF
"Change in the Canadian economy is pervasive. Resources are constantly being transferred from one use to another for a variety of reasons. During this process, firms decline or exit from an industry because of inept management, better returns in another industry, or because a new idea or new project did not meet expectations. Workers quit or are laid off because of a mismatch between skills supplied and those demanded. This turnover in firms and workers is endemic to the workings of a market economy. It provides the adjustment required for adaptation. Firm and worker turnover serve to reallocate resources from lower- to higher-value uses and thus make an important contribution to the growth of the Canadian economy"--Introduction, page [1].
