In this episode of #MotivatingMondays, we’re examining the challenge of getting past low wage employment. Women, single parents, those with disabilities and those with limited education are much more challenged by low-income. People in female lone-parent families (23%), people without a high school diploma (21%), and people who reported they always had limitations in their daily activities (18%) were more at risk of low-income persistence, compared to the overall population.

In this episode of #MotivatingMondays, we’re taking a closer look at perceptions of 'ghost jobs', how common are they and what can people do about them. A recent survey found that 70% of job seekers say being ghosted by an employer – receiving no response after applying or interviewing – impacts their mental health and motivation to continue searching, with 33% describing the impact as significant or severe.

In this episode of #MotivatingMondays, we’re taking a closer look at the growing number of 'contract roles' employers are offering to job seekers rather than traditional employment. The gig economy is not all it's cracked up to be. If someone has been claiming to be an independent contractor and the Canada Revenue Agency determines they are an employee rather than an independent contractor, they risk losing business expense deductions, being denied employment insurance (EI) benefits if the contract ends, and face potential retroactive tax penalties. We'll look at how to navigate these challenges for both employers and job seekers.

In this episode of #MotivatingMondays, we’re taking a closer look at disclosing disability. New research from the Conference Board of Canada provides valuable employer and employee insights that can assist us in not only better preparing our clients or students but also support employers in creating a more inclusive workplace. Employees with disabilities typically disclose only when necessary—such as to request accommodation (53.6 per cent), to explain performance issues (50.3 per cent), or to account for absences (42.7 per cent).

In this episode of #MotivatingMondays, we’re talking about the massive changes that have come and are coming to employment standards across the country. Each province and territory is angling to be the most attractive place to live whether for young people, immigrants or those from other parts of Canada and they are introducing worker-friendly standards to encourage this. According to the Canadian Occupational Projection System, less than 50% of our future workforce growth is going to come from young people entering the workforce for the first time. Barely 25-35 per cent of our workforce needs will come from immigrants and that means the other 15-25 per cent will need to come from engaging people who have checked out of the workforce or encouraging people to move from other provinces.

In this episode of #MotivatingMondays, we’re talking about a strategy for engaging employers that reinforces your expertise and builds your credibility. We're encouraging you to organize an employer-focused event this winter called a 'Recruitment and Retention Strategy Day', providing it sometime between now and mid-March. As people get back to work in January, we're entering a period of a few months, where work is going to take place in low-gear. It's before spring-break, summer holidays and seasonal hiring. Winter is the perfect time to garner an employers' interest and showcase what you can do.
