The relation between education and labour force participation of Aboriginal peoples: A simulation analysis using the Demosim population projection model

Abstract: This study aims at quantifying the impact of educational attainments on the future labour force participation of Aboriginal peoples. Using Statistics Canada's Demosim population projection model, we are able to simulate alternative scenarios of educational change and resulting effects on the future labour force until 2056. About half of the observed difference in labour force participation rates between Aboriginal peoples and the Canadian-born population belonging neither to an Aboriginal nor to a visible mino… Show more

“…Increase in the education maximizes the opportunity for the people to take part in the labor force of the country. Finding of the study is consistent with the previous studies of ( Rauf et al, 2018;Zohaib Ali, 2017;Mushtaq, Mohsin, & Zaman, 2013;Chaudhary, Iqbal, & Gillani, 2009;PATRINOS, 2016;Faridi, Malik, & Ahmad, 2010;Spielauer, 2014;Hedley, 2003;Heath & Jayachandran, 2016;SANUSI, 2016;Bowen & Finegan, 2015). Education is one of the prevalent factors in determining the human capital formation and also in relation to income and labor force participation.…”

“…3 For a more complete description of Demosim, see Caron-Malenfant, Lebel, and Martel (2010) and Caron-Malenfant and Morency (2011). For examples of sensitivity analysis performed with Demosim, see Spielauer (2014). 4 Ediev, Coleman, and Scherbov (2014) used the same strategy to calculate period indicators of the direct and indirect effects of migration on population dynamics.…”

“…Still, applications so far were limited to the developed world. The most prominent example is Demosim, the microsimulation population projection model developed and used by Statistics Canada to project the Canadian population by visible minority group (Caron-Malenfant et al, 2010) and Aboriginal identity (Morency et al, 2015), to project its labor force (Martel et al, 2011), and to study the effect of educational improvements on the future size and composition of the Aboriginal labor force (Spielauer, 2014). Variants of Demosim were recently developed as well for several European countries and Australia (Marois et al, 2017).…”
