Abstract

This paper draws on data gathered in the course of a two-year study of the Canadian telecommunications industry workforce. The study contributes to the international literature on telecommunications deregulation by providing the first systematic data on how the telephone industry workforce views the policy of deregulation. If found that opposition to deregulation is widespread, and even stronger than opposition to technical change. The findings support anecdotal experience from other countries that deregulation even poses a significant threat to jobs.
