Ontario's workforce performs
An investment in workers: low turnover rates are good for business
Ontario's investment in workers pays off in today's economy. Average employee job tenure in
Ontario was almost 9 years in 2006, significantly higher than the U.S. average of 4.0 years. In our
manufacturing sector, job tenure was even higher at over 9.5 years, while U.S. employers enjoy only an average tenure of 5.5 years. Lower turnover means lower labour costs and a
more profitable business climate for companies in Ontario.
