Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: New challenge: Telephone switchboard systems like the one above are among the benefits high-tech changes have created to help improve productivity. But some economists say such an example is an exception in this country; which has been slow to use new technology; design new products and services; upgrade skills and improve labor-management relations.
