Labour Market Transfers and the Implications for Literacy and Essential Skills: Briefing Package
Hayes, Brigid
Canadian Literacy and Learning Network
This revised report was prepared for the Canadian Literacy and Learning Network (CLLN) and the thirteen-member provincial and territorial literacy coalitions. The purpose of the report is: (1) To provide background information on the labour market transfers from the Federal Government to the provincial and territorial governments; (2) To outline why one of these labour market transfers, in particular, the Labour Market Agreement, should matter to CLLN and the provincial/territorial literacy coalitions; and (3) To offer the provincial/territorial coalitions a customized package outlining the situation in their province/territory, giving an analysis of the situation, and suggesting questions that might be raised with the provincial/territorial governments. The report is divided into three parts. Section 1: introduces the different labour market tools, with information based upon on-line research; Section 2: focuses on the provincial and territorial literacy coalitions and the labour market agreements; and Sections 3-15: provide customized reports for each province and territory.
