Future of Work

Decent work and economic growth are closely intertwined with the future of work in Canada, shaping the landscape of employment, labour markets, and overall economic prosperity. As the nature of work evolves with technological advancements and changing market demands, TMU researchers seek to promote sustained, inclusive economic growth, full and productive employment, and decent work for all. Our multifaceted approach spans entrepreneurial, innovation, and policy ecosystems and incorporates management / leadership best practices. By identifying and promoting best practices in corporate social responsibility, labour relations, workforce diversity, corporate governance, leadership, and ethics, TMU researchers drive excellence in business operations. We also enhance business structures through expertise in pensions and investments, taxation, consumer research, and corporate accounting and finance. Our SRC activities encompass firms of all sizes, from global leaders to emerging family businesses, across diverse industries with a focus on hospitality, tourism, retail, real estate, sports, and tech sectors. Working with industrial and community partners, our researchers advance inclusive growth and reduce barriers to workforce participation for underrepresented groups, contributing to a more resilient and dynamic labour market.
