Individualism: Perceptions of People Experiencing Difficulties Integrating into the Labour Market
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Although labour market training is emphasized in Canada, few publications examine the impact of training programs and employment policies on people who are ditionully vulnerable to being unemployed or underemployed. One-to-one and focus-groul~ interviews were held with 72 respondents who were receiving training in labour market integration programs in Calgary and Xegina. Rather than attributing their difficulties in finding and maintaining employment to structural issues or systemic barriers, respondents often presented causes in terms of their personal characteristics or circumstances. They associated low Inbour-mmket participation with, inadequate education, health issues, personal identity, and individual and family-rooted problems. The response of individual causes is a direct result of the influence ofneo-liberalism within our social environment. Keywords: individualism; employment; skill training; neo-liberalism Si le Canada fait une large place h formation professionnelle pour l'insertion au mud6 du travail, seul un faible nombre de publications examinent l'incidence des programmes de formation et cles politiques d'emploi sur les personnes qui sont traditionnellement vulnAables au chbmage ou au sous-emploi. Des entrevues individuelles et des groupes d'entretiens en profonlleur ont it6 rialisis avec 72 ripondants qui recevaient une formation dans le cadre de programmes d'intigration au march6 du travail h Calgary et Regina. Plut6t que d'attribuer leurs difficultis h trouver et garder un emploi h des probl2mes scructurels ou des obstacles systimiques, les ripondants interpre'taient souvent les causesen tennes d'attributs ou de circonstances personnels. 11s imputuient la faible participation au marche' du travail h ces facteurs : e'ducation idquate, probhs de sante', identite' personnelle et probkmes individuels et ceux lie's h la famille. Le fait que les causes individuelles e'tuient cite'es dans les re'ponses est directement attribuable h l'influence du ne'olibe'ralisme au sein de notre environnement social.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
