Canadian Mining Industry Employment and Hiring Forecasts 2011 - A Mining Industry Workforce Information Network Report
The 2011 version of this annual report includes adjustments to the MiHR forecasting model, namely updates to the economic variables and the Commodity Price Index. The general improvement in the outlook for the global economy and for commodities has led to hiring projections in the 2011 report which have increased from the already substantial numbers of the 2010 report.
The National report expands on previous research and forecasts (conducted in 2008 and 2009) that examined the dynamics of the mining labour markets in British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Ontario. The national report considers each region's economic contribution and relative importance to the sector and is available in English and French.
