Cyclical bust and boom and the resulting economic restructuring result in some workers being forced out of work. Based on the controversy over the presence or absence of gender differences in coping responses to unemployment that differ in unequal expectations of sex roles and sexual division of labor among the unemployed married individuals, this paper, using the 2008 Labor Force Survey conducted by Statistics Canada, explores whether there are gender-based differences in job seeking, one of the most important strategies for coping responses to unemployment. The finding shows that women value their employment as much as men and make similar efforts to re-enter the labor market when unemployed.
