标题: 加拿大十大最糟糕的工作职位

在加拿大最不适合从事的行业: 最新十大最糟糕的工作职位

排名是以各个职位的就业机会以及近年来薪酬水平的波动为标准。

如果你正在找工作，下面这些职位可以列入你的“黑名单”内。

10. 塑料加工机器操作员年薪3.3万加元

Plastics processing machine operator

Median salary: $33,072
5-yr. salary growth: +9%
5-yr. growth in employees (2006-2012): -42.41%
Total employees (2012): 2,010
Example job types: bag machine operator, injection moulder, sheeter operator
Employed by: plastic products manufacturing companies
Slow economic growth in the plastics industry has meant significantly fewer jobs here over the previous decade. Environmental efforts to reduce plastics use may also be a factor. The industry is nevertheless a valuable one at $17.6 billion annually and accounts for 2% of world production. On the plus side, the federal government suggests there is actually a building shortage of some specific jobs such as mould and die makers and salary growth overall has been positive.

对塑料需求的下降，意味着这个行业在近十年内的就业人数一直在减少。

9. 印刷机操作员年薪3.75万元

Printing machine operator

Median salary: $37,440

5-yr. salary growth: 0%

5-yr. growth in employees (2006-2012): -42.86%

Total employees (2012): 4,400

Example job types: balloon printer, colour copier operator, screen print operator

Employed by: rapid printing services, commercial printing companies and in manufacturing and other establishments that have in-house printing facilities

The story here points to technology, where rapid and fairly constant improvements in technology since the 1990s have conspired to limit job prospects. Employment here also closely follows the fortunes of the printing industry, which has been hammered by the rise of the paperless office. Note that this classification does not include printing press operators.

印刷技术的不断更新使得这个行业需要的人力逐渐减少。

8. 铸造工人年薪4.37万元

Foundry worker

Median salary: $43,680
5-yr. salary growth: +5%
5-yr growth in employees (2006-2012): -43.14%
Total employees (2012): 2,900
Example job types: casting machine operator, induction furnace operator, wax-pattern moulder
Employed by: metal foundries and foundry departments of metal products manufacturing companies
Among the best paid of the worst jobs—you know, what with all of the… lava and stuff. But again, the recession impacted manufacturing worldwide, leading to employment declines in the sector. It doesn’t employ many people to begin with but the good news is the sector isn’t as negatively affected by improvements in productivity as are some other related jobs. As such the federal government is predicting improvement in this category in coming years.

这个工作被Canadian Business称为“最好的糟糕工作”之一：薪水不错，但是由于经济衰退，就业机会在减少。

7. 木材、纸浆和纸张处理年薪3.95万加元

Labourer, wood, pulp and paper processing

Median salary: $39,520
5-yr. salary growth: +23%
5-yr growth in employees (2006-2012): -43.39%
Total employees (2012): 19,700
Example job types: sawmill bolt loader, dry chainman/woman, thrasher feeder
Employed by: pulp and paper, and paper converting companies, sawmills, planing mills, wood treatment plants, waferboard plants and other wood processing companies

An anomaly of sorts in that employment continues to trend down, but salary growth is way up—far above the next worst job (harvesting labourers). It’s not the safest job, given the prevalence of machines and objects with sharp teeth, so there’s a wage premium to be had even as market slowdowns take their toll on overall employment. However, the outlook here isn’t substantially different from that of their close cousins, the pulp mill operators. Service Canada's verdict on future prospects: limited.

这个职位不仅薪水低、需求在减少，同时也需要耗费大量体力，并且非常危险。

6. 橡胶加工机器操作员年薪3.85万加元

Rubber processing machine operator

Median salary: $38,500.80

5-yr. salary growth: -3%

5-yr growth in employees (2006-2012): -45.39%

Total employees (2012): 7,700

Example job types: rubber goods assembler, foam rubber mixer, padded products repairer

Employed by: tire manufacturers and other rubber products manufacturing companies

Work in this sector touches several industries, including rubber, plastics and auto parts manufacture. With the economic recession, markets have suffered and so available work has declined. Unfortunately, salary growth is down; in fact, among the 10 worst jobs, this category is the only one to record a decline in that metric.

和塑料加工机器操作员类似，橡胶产品的需求下降使得这个行业的劳动力过剩，就业机会少得可怜。

5. 普通办公室文员年薪3.53万加元

General office clerk

Median salary: $35,360
5-yr. salary growth: +3%
5-yr growth in employees (2006-2012): -46.22%
Total employees (2012): 42,000
Example job types: Braille volumes transcriber, gas meter reader, typist
Employed by: offices throughout the public and private sectorsIt’s important to immediately point out that this classification does not include receptionists and certain specialized clerks such as in finance. But it does include jobs like gas meter reader and with the proliferation of technology like smart meters and remote data collection, general office clerk isn’t a growth area. And those that are in offices have seen themselves “rationalized” out of a job as economic contraction has forced staff reductions with the work simply added to the plates of remaining staff. But compared to the other jobs in this list, clerks have the highest employment number at 42,000 and salary growth remains positive.
有特殊技能的办公室文员就业前景还不错，但公司如果开始裁员，最先裁掉的可能就是普通办公室文员——因为他们做的事更容易分配给其他人来做。

4. 采摘工人年薪2.23万加元

Harvesting labourer

Median salary: $22,360
5-yr. salary growth: +12%
5-yr growth in employees (2006-2012): -57.24%
Total employees (2012): 6,500
Example job types: fruit picker, harvest hand, vegetable packer
Employed by: N/A

Harvesting, sorting and packing crops isn’t an easy gig, and it doesn’t pay well, either. But it’s also the sort of job susceptible to mechanization or automation, especially on the sorting and packing side. However, job declines have slowed since 2011, possibly the partial result of increasing prices for agricultural products; and wages are up 2% from last year for an overall five-year gain of 12%. Service Canada describes job prospects in this category as “fair.” Note that general farm workers are not included in this category.

采摘工作需要耗费大量体力，加拿大人大多不屑于做这种工作，现在大多由外劳在做，薪水很低。

3. 编织工人年薪2.9万加元

Weaver or knitter

Median salary: $29,120
5-yr. salary growth: 0%
5-yr growth in employees (2006-2012): -57.97%
Total employees (2012): 2,900
Example job types: crochet machine operator, hosiery knitter, textile rope maker
Employed by: textile companies and by garment and mattress manufacturing companies
Weavers and knitters held the crown of worst job in Canada as late as last year, but a slight slowdown in the rate of job loss has saved it from the distinction. That may have to do with a significant uptick—17%—in median salary between this year and last, although growth overall is flat. Note that this classification actually excludes “craft weavers”—artists, more or less. (They just do it for love.) Nevertheless, the garment industry is no longer a significant presence in the Canadian landscape, with most work long migrated to places like China, Bangladesh and Mexico.

制衣业在近几十年内不断向劳力成本较低的地区转移，本国的就业机会少得可怜。

2. 摄影和胶片冲洗年薪2.3万加元

Photographic and film processor

Median salary: $23,212.80
5-yr. salary growth: +8%
5-yr growth in employees (2006-2012): -58.54%
Total employees (2012): 3,400
Example job types: dark room technician, negative cutter, x-ray plate developer
Employed by: film processing laboratories and retail photofinishing establishments
Still dead, Jim. As surely as the rise of cheap digital tech killed the compact disc, cheap digital tech has killed photo and film processing. Standard bearer Kodak gave up the ghost last year, along with its too little, too late foray into the consumer digital camera market. While the company is scheduled to emerge from bankruptcy this year, there’s evidently not much work in the industry, whether in retail or manufacturing. Down to 3,400 workers and a median salary of $23,000, there’s little future here except at the very high-end in feature film production or specialty photography.
数码相机的出现使得胶片机以及冲洗胶片的专业人员需求大大减少。现在大家几乎已经要和照片冲洗说再见了。

1. 纸浆厂操作员年薪5.6万加元

Pulp mill operator

Median salary: $56,160
5-yr. salary growth: +8%
5-yr growth in employees (2006-2012): -66.67%
Total employees (2012): 1,800
Example job types: bleach boiler tender, chemi-wash operator, wood pulp caustic liquor maker
Employed by: pulp and paper companies

This is as bad as it gets. Pulp and paper isn’t an industry you want to be in right now, despite the $34-billion sector being a leading contributor to Canada’s GDP. The global economic slowdown has taken its toll, as have issues like overcapacity, the environment (those beetle infestations haven't helped either) and rising costs. According to a PriceWaterhouseCoopers report, 92% of CEOs have implemented cuts of some kind in the last 18 months and 89% are planning more over the next 12. Of that latter total, 18% of CEOs plan to cut by more than 8% in 2013.

比较令人吃惊的是，排名“最糟糕”的工作同时也是这十个工作中薪水最高的。Canadian Business称，这是2013年最不适合从事的行业。全球经济不景气，造纸工业成本的升高以及大家对纸张需求的减少，都使得这个行业岌岌可危。
