Mandatory Notice and the Jobless Durations of Displaced Workers.
Friesen, Jane
Industrial and Labor Relations Review, v50 n4 p652-66 Jul 1997
Canadian Displaced Workers Survey data indicate that group advance-notice laws, which apply to large-scale layoffs, reduced the length of displaced workers' joblessness. Individual notice laws had little effect, perhaps because laid-off workers whose plants remain open may expect to be rehired and therefore delay job search. (SK)
