在这篇文章中，我们考察了加拿大工作质量的多个方面。评估了工作质量的六个广泛维度：收入和福利、职业前景、工作强度、工作时间质量、技能和判断力以及索达尔环境。描述性和潜在阶层分析的结果显示，不同部门和社会人口群体的工作质量存在很大差异。特别是，我们发现，一些最大的劳动力市场细分市场，如酒店和个人服务，与许多负面工作特征有关。此外，拥有非典型合同或兼职工作的工人在工作场所除了工资较低外，还有许多不利因素。
In this article, we examine multidimensional aspects of job quality in Canada. Six broad dimensions of job quality were assessed: income and benefits, career prospects, work intensity, working-time quality, skills and discretion, and sodal environment. Results from both descriptive and latent class analysis reveal a great deal of variation in job quality across sectors and socio-demographic groups. hi particular, we found that some of the largest labour market segments, such as hospitality and personal services, are associated with many negative job features. Moreover, workers with atypical contracts or in part-time employment have many disadvantages in the workplace other than being low-paid.
