The Fraser Institute: Media Advisory; Report Comparing Government and Private-Sector Wages Across Canada Coming Thursday, April 4
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 04/03/13 -- The Fraser Institute will release a new study comparing public- and private-sector wages nationwide on Thursday, April 4 at 6:30 a.m. (Eastern).
The study, Comparing Public and Private Sector Compensation in Canada, examines wage and non-wage benefits for government employees (federal, provincial, and local) and private-sector workers nationwide. It calculates the wage premium for public-sector workers using Statistics Canada's Labour Force Survey from April 2011, after adjusting for personal characteristics such as gender, age, marital status, education, tenure, size of establishment, type of job, and industry.
The report also compares three components of non-wage benefits: pensions, early retirement, and job security.
"At a time when Canadian governments are drowning in debt and deficits, it's important to look at the compensation packages that government workers have long enjoyed," said Jason Clemens, Fraser Institute executive vice-president.
A news release with additional information will be issued via Marketwire at 6:30 a.m. (Eastern) on Thursday, April 4.
The full report will also be available as a free PDF download at .
