Data from the Executive Work and Health Survey (EWHS) for 2021 are now available.

This 2021 survey is the result of a partnership between Statistics Canada and the Association of Professional Executives of the Public Service of Canada (APEX). While the survey has been conducted by APEX every five years since 1997, in 2021 Statistics Canada managed the EWHS collection on behalf of APEX for the first time.

The latest cycle of the EWHS consisted of a census of approximately 8,200 executives from eligible and participating federal departments and agencies. This inaugural collection with Statistics Canada resulted in the most collected data in the history of the EWHS.

Conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, when the majority of executives were working remotely, these data will make a significant contribution to a better understanding of the complex relationship between an individuals' mental and physical well-being and their working environment.

APEX and Statistics Canada will be releasing further analysis of this survey data in the coming months.

For more information, please visit Executive Work and Health Surveys on the APEX website.
