Economic Overview

•With well developed agriculture, oil and gas, and mining industries, Saskatchewan is well positioned to meet the world’s needs

•Global recession prompted a 3.9 per cent decline in GDP, but growth returned in 2010 and 2011

•Rebalancing of the global economy continues and in the short term minerals and metals prices are expected to increase; however over the long term, prices are expected to moderate

Saskatchewan Mining Labour Market Trends• Aging workforce, average retirement age in Saskatchewan mining is 62

(compared with 59.5 in other regions)

• Survey of stakeholders indicates 12 per cent eligible to retire • Decisions to retire are complex; not all eligible will retire at one time

• Saskatchewan mining industry underperforms other sectors in employing women (14 per cent) and new Canadians (2.3 per cent)

• Saskatchewan mining industry is a leading employer of First Nations and Métis peoples (11.5 per cent of mining workforce; with majority employed at northern mine sites)

Hiring Requirements Forecast Methodology

• MiHR hiring requirements forecast model for the Saskatchewan mining industry provides projections for three scenarios—baseline, contractionary, expansionary

• Model inputs include: Labour productivity A Saskatchewan-specific minerals price index Non-retirement separation rates Retirement rates

Available Talent Forecasts

Page 18: 2011 Saskatchewan Mining Industry Hiring Requirements and Talent Availability Forecasts

Available Talent Forecast Methodology • The talent availability forecast in the report is the first time

MiHR has completed a labour supply forecast for the Canadian mining industry.

• The forecast is a stock and flow model that adjusts the labour force each year by starting with the existing labour force, adding new entrants and then subtracting the number of people who leave the workforce.

• The main sources of new entrants include: school leavers (high school, PSE) net international migration net interprovincial migration and “others”, such as people changing occupations and

those re-entering the workforce after a temporary absence.

Addressing the Gaps

The nature of the gaps differ among occupations, thus a multi-faceted approach is needed to address gaps

• In some cases, the industry must aim to attract more people from an existing pool of talent (e.g., work with SMA to present a unified front to promote careers in mining; adapt MiHR’s Explore for More brand for Saskatchewan).

• In other cases, the industry must aim to grow the size of a talent pool that is otherwise too small to meet its needs (e.g., through partnerships and support for education and training and immigration).

• In all cases, the industry must strive to make the best possible use of the talent already involved with the industry (e.g., retaining mature workers and re-engaging the retired workforce).
