Changes in the manpower supply, both with respect to numbers and education, , have far-reaching conse- quences for the labour force and the labour market. Relevant factors are: the growht rate, age composition and educational attainment; growth in managerial, pro-. fessional and technical jobs compared with the number of post-secondary leavers seek- ing such jobs; labour force growth and unemployment; current youth unemploymeet the relationship between education and unemploy- ment; impact of the decreasing demand fot school teachers on the tabour market for university graduates; a .possible quali- fication spiral anci• under- employment. For the most part, the study discusses future changes in the supply of manpower, No correspond- ing demand projections have been made. Recent and anticipated changes in the manpower supply form the school systeiii have profound implications: The report examines education strictly from a labour market stand- point. However, it is recognize'd that education has'a multiplicity of purposes only one of which is prepar- ation for a job. The educational attainment of school leavers BEAN last decade from secondary towrd post-secondary, thereby raising the overall educational level' of the labour force. In the coming decade, this shift will continue, but at a slower teaching, employing 36 per cent of young degree-holders Between 1466 and 1975 employment in managerial, professional and technical occupations rose about S per' cent a year, a very high rate' Anyone with an inter- est in the Match is invited to attend the harvest-theme service at the church. !rations. The rate fell to .a.5 per cent in 1976 and 2.2 per cent in 1977, The number of labour force entrants from college and university, however, was increasing more quickly • 12 per cent a year from 1966 to 1971, dropping to around • 4 per cent in the mid-seventies. The annual number of post, secondary sche61 ,leavers -more than doubled from 46,000 in 1966 to. 98,000 in 1976, This discrepancy in the growth of managerial, pro- fessional and technical occu- pations and the number of post-secondary-educated job-seekers made it virtually impossible for all graduates in the mid and late 1970s to acquire employment similar to that obtained by their counterparts in the early and mid-1960s.
