Book Description
From the Introduction: The objective of this study is to analyse the postwar growth of the mining sector of the Canadian economy in relation to the resources required to achieve this growth. The emphasis is, therefore, on production in contrast with demand and market aspects. Also, since our interest is in the general dimensions of growth in this sector of the economy, the focus is on aggreagate trends, rather than particular commodity developments. We do, however, examine separately various subgroups within the mining sector because of the substantial differences that exist between them. The approach has been to draw together the data required to measure rates of increase in output, in relation to rates of change in labour and capital inputs, and to obtain the resultant trends in factor productivity.

Productivity and Labour Costs in the Ontario Metal Mining Industry, 1975 to 1985
Author: Alan G. Green
Publisher: Ontario, Mines and Minerals Division
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Dramatic changes have occurred in the metal mining sector over the last 25 years, some of which were reviewed in a Ministry study which investigated the impact of rising indirect labour costs and a shift toward white collar workers on the productivity performance of the metal mining industry from 1960-77. This study updates this earlier work and covers 1977 to the present, reviewing the earlier study, presenting issues to be studied, and covering the demand for metals, productivity changes, production costs, labour costs, and mining benefit costs in the United States and Canada.
