Speaking on day one of the 2015 HIO Employer Summit, Dr. Rick Miner takes participants through his research into the Canadian labour market’s gaps and misalignments. The management consultant, former president of Seneca College and author of The Great Canadian Skills Mismatch: People Without Jobs, Jobs Without People and MORE, outlines his most recent findings that not only is there an overall shortage in the labour market, but in many cases jobs go unfilled because workers are in the wrong place, or they are over- or under-qualified. Miner highlights the need for co-ordinated policies and practices to address all of these issues strategically.
