June 2009 online edition

The June 2009 online edition of Perspectives on Labour and Income, released today, features one item.

"International differences in low-paid work" examines Canada's higher proportion of low-paid work than Australia and most countries in continental Europe. While different approaches to the labour market in the latter are evident, Australia's many similarities with Canada make its much lower rate of low-paid work more striking.

The June 2009 online edition of Perspectives on Labour and Income, Vol. 10, no. 6 (75-001-X, free), is now available from the Publications module of our website.
