Shaping the Future of Work in Canada: Beyond the COVID-19 Pandemic

Much speculation swirls around the lasting impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on workers and the future of work in Canada. Lacking is a finely grained analysis of how job quality and worker well-being has changed during the pandemic. The Future of Work survey, conducted by EKOS Research Associates this fall, is designed to fill this knowledge gap. Prominent issues documented in the survey include how to promote workers’ mental and physical well-being, how work from home arrangements can evolve in sustainable ways, how the pandemic has impacted job quality, and to what extent workers’ experiences during the pandemic have prompted some to fundamentally rethink what they want out of a job.

I will present key findings from the Future of Work Survey and moderate a discussion about how the future of work can be shaped in ways that optimize benefits for workers, employers, and Canadian society.

The Future of Work project is being conducted by a Research Consortium and funded by the Future Skills Centre.
