Labour market studies are conducted in order to understand and respond to changing labour market demands. We conduct studies on behalf of government, industry associations and others to build a deeper understanding of the context, characteristics, strengths, challenges, and future direction of the labour market within specific sectors of the economy. These studies generally involve analysis of economic data, extensive surveying of employers, and detailed interviews with subject matter experts. We use statistically sound methods to extrapolate survey findings and other data to estimate sector characteristics and to forecast future changes. Our clients rely on these studies to inform evidence based planning to strengthen their respective sectors.
We have conducted labour market studies in the social venture, non-profit, co-operative, film and television, manufacturing, and advanced manufacturing sectors, among other areas.
