Summative evaluation of EI part I : Évaluation sommative de la partie I de l'AE : résumé des connaissances acquises jusqu'ici dans l'évaluation : rapport final

In the case of EI Part I, the operations of the program are depicted as being set in motion by the flow of employment terminations in the economy. [...] The final boxes of the logic model show many of the possible effects of the program on the labour market. [...] At the same time, however, some of the impacts of the program may affect the unemployment rate itself, and this type of feedback is represented by the long grey line that runs up the right-hand side of the logic model. [...] As well, many of the errors concerned pieces of information not necessarily crucial to the operation of the EI system, such as the industry of the last job. [...] In 2003/04, the delivery date of the first cheque was within 28 days of the start of the claim 65.8% of the time.
