    • 1. Like commuting? Workers' perceptions of their daily commute Archived
      Articles and reports: 11-008-X20060049516
      Geography: Canada
      Description:

      It is generally assumed that for most workers, commuting is at best a necessary evil, at worst, a daily nightmare. But is that really the case? Using the latest data from the 2005 General Social Survey on time use, this study identifies the main factors associated with a more or less pleasant commute, focusing in particular on the mode of transportation used.

    • 2. The Time It Takes to Get to Work and Back Archived
      Articles and reports: 89-622-X2006001
      Description:

      Using data from the General Social Survey on Time Use for 1992, 1998, and 2005, this article analyses the changes in average commute times between home and work. Information is broken down by province, selected census metropolitan areas and mode of transportation used.

      There is also an analysis of the factors involved in increased or decreased commute times for workers between home and work (during weekdays). The analysis shows that in addition to the distance from work, the metropolitan area of residence, whether or not errands are involved and the mode of transportation used all have a major impact on workers' commute times.

    How do I use the filters and the search box?

    • You can initiate a search by entering keywords or selecting filters (e.g., under Subject, Geography, etc.) on the left side of the page.

    • Filters can be used together or in any combination. Each time you select a filter, the results on the page are updated.

    • To start a new search, click on the Clear all button above the search box or deselect each filter.

    • Specified keywords and filters appear above the search box. You can deselect any or all the tags to refine or clear your search.

    How do I refine my search?

    • You can enter keywords in the search box. It is not necessary to use “+” or “, “ or “AND”.

    • You can delete some or all of the keywords from your search string.

    • Quotes around keywords limit the search to a specific phrase.

      • For example, “labour force survey” will limit results to products containing this phrase.

    • Use “or” between keywords to obtain results that contain one or more search terms.

      • For example, labour or­ force or survey will limit results to products containing any or all of these words.

    How does the search work?

    • This search looks for results that have your query term in the title, description, subject, geography, product number or other information about the product.

      • For example, when searching the term ‘Diseases’, all results with the word ‘Diseases’ in the title, description or tagged the subject appear.

    • The text within an article or publication are not searched. For full text searching of articles, use the site search.

    Sort help

    How are the results ordered?

    • By date – sorts results by product release date starting with the most recent.
    • By relevance is only needed or beneficial when you use the search box and submit a search query. Results are ordered by a combination of where the search term appears in the content, e.g., if it appears in the title, it likely means the product is more relevant to your search; how up to date or new the content in the product is; how popular the product is; and other factors.
    • By title – sorts results alphabetically.
