Occupational Adjustment
(Third Article)
A factor contributive to satis­
factory resettlement, far more im­
portant than the matter of physical
acclimatization, is that of social
adaptation. And of the various
phases of the latter, the most basic
probably is the problem of occu­
pational adjustment.
To be adequately employed is the
primary condition of genuine as­
similation. For upon it depends the
economic security—self-sustenance,
without which no satisfactory re­
settlement can be expected. Then,
it is by being creatively engaged
in some necessary work that we
gain confidence and inner satis­
faction as well as develop a feel­
ing of community, in the conscious­
ness that we are bearing our* share
in the world’s work. It is again,
only by our w^ork that we win our
’ social recognition,, standing or dis­
tinction; for the world judges us
by what we do, and not by what we
are or what we think, however im­
portant these may be in influencing
our actions.
Those who went to eastern Cana­
da/were fortunate in this respect:
that they -were each assured of em­
ployment. However, placement and
adjustment
are
two
different
things. The fact that every relocee
was giveA some kind of employ­
ment—which in itself is a tremen­
dous undertaking, did not mean
that
everybody was
properly
adjusted to his job; and in all the
places I visited^ I found many
people who had not yet quite re-

adjusted themselves occupationally
and were still restless and dissatisfied.
of course, is not
to be wondered at. Even in normal
times, it takes years for most
people to achieve a satisfactory
occupational re-adjustment. But
this must be particularly so in re­
gard to our relocees, because in
most cases, the change of occupa­
tion was so radical and complete.
On account of the war-time mea­
sures, which forbid these people
from opening any new enterprises,
and from buying or leasing lands
they were practically all reduced
to the status of wage-earners. Thus
I found employed on sugar-beets
farms in Alberta and Manitoba
men who were born fishermen, or
who had been almost for their
lifetime school teachers or busi­
nessmen. Likewise I saw a bank
clerk in a pressing shop, an expor_
ter of no small means in a factory,
and an A. T. C. M. in a domestic
work. No wonder it takes time to
adjust themselves!
Moreover, the occupational ad­
justment involves many factors:
the individual aptitude, the train­
ing and experiences and the per­
sonal attitude of the worker him­
self, as well as the nature of the
work, the wages and the character
of the employer: In addition the
attitude of the fellow-employees
often has much to do with the
speeding or retarding of the pro­
cess. The problem of occupational
re-adjustment, therefore, 's no sim_
pie matter;’ it may involve any
one oi’ several of these factors.
