The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant disruption to the Canadian labour market. In the initial stage of the pandemic, Canadian authorities enforced containment measures to curb the pandemic’s impact within Canada. Following new waves of cases, public health authorities shifted their approach to instill more targeted and less general restrictive measures. The supply and demand effects caused by these measures had a heterogeneous impact on different sectors of the labour market. This study measures how labour supply and demand shocks affected different sectors of the Canadian economy, how the shocks varied among the sectors and how those shocks changed as the pandemic progressed. These results offer important insights to decision-makers in both fiscal and monetary policy, which could help them respond in a more targeted way to future pandemics. Since lockdown measures had heterogeneous effects on different sectors, a policy designed to support demand may have affected a supply-constrained sector differently than a sector not facing supply constraints. A COVID-19 demand and supply shock analysis was performed by estimating labour demand and supply shocks at the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) two-digit level. The complete list of sectors studied is available in Online Supplemental Appendix Table 1. This study’s approach was inspired by Brinca et al. (Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis Working Paper, 2020, https://

衡量 COVID-19 期间的劳动力供需冲击

COVID-19 大流行对加拿大劳动力市场造成了严重破坏。在大流行的初始阶段,加拿大当局实施了遏制措施,以遏制大流行在加拿大境内的影响。随着新一波病例的出现,公共卫生当局改变了方法,采取了更有针对性和不那么普遍的限制性措施。这些措施引起的供需效应对劳动力市场的不同部门产生了不同的影响。这项研究衡量了劳动力供需冲击如何影响加拿大经济的不同部门,这些冲击在各个部门之间如何变化,以及这些冲击如何随着大流行的发展而变化。这些结果为财政和货币政策的决策者提供了重要的见解,这可以帮助他们以更有针对性的方式应对未来的流行病。由于封锁措施对不同部门产生了不同的影响,旨在支持需​​求的政策可能对供应受限的部门的影响与对未面临供应限制的部门的影响不同。通过估计北美行业分类系统 (NAICS) 两位数水平的劳动力需求和供应冲击,进行了 COVID-19 需求和供应冲击分析。在线补充附录表 1 中提供了所研究行业的完整列表。本研究的方法受到 Brinca 等人的启发。(圣路易斯联邦储备银行工作文件,2020 年,https:// 一项旨在支持需​​求的政策对供应受限的部门的影响可能与对未面临供应限制的部门的影响不同。通过估计北美行业分类系统 (NAICS) 两位数水平的劳动力需求和供应冲击,进行了 COVID-19 需求和供应冲击分析。在线补充附录表 1 中提供了所研究行业的完整列表。本研究的方法受到 Brinca 等人的启发。(圣路易斯联邦储备银行工作文件,2020 年,https:// 一项旨在支持需​​求的政策对供应受限的部门的影响可能与对未面临供应限制的部门的影响不同。通过估计北美行业分类系统 (NAICS) 两位数水平的劳动力需求和供应冲击,进行了 COVID-19 需求和供应冲击分析。在线补充附录表 1 中提供了所研究行业的完整列表。本研究的方法受到 Brinca 等人的启发。(圣路易斯联邦储备银行工作文件,2020 年,https:// 这项研究的方法受到 Brinca 等人的启发。(圣路易斯联邦储备银行工作文件,2020 年,https:// 这项研究的方法受到 Brinca 等人的启发。(圣路易斯联邦储备银行工作文件,2020 年,https://
