- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202400200001Description: The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted several issues among health care workers in Canada’s long-term care and seniors’ (LTCS) homes, including labour shortages, staff retention difficulties, overcrowding, and precarious working conditions. There is currently a lack of information on the health, well-being, and working conditions of health care workers in LTCS homes—many of them immigrants—and a limited understanding of the relationship between them. Using data from the 2021 Survey on Health Care Workers’ Experiences During the Pandemic, this paper examines differences between immigrant and non-immigrant workers’ health outcomes and precarious working conditions during the pandemic.Release date: 2024-02-21
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202300800004Description: Labour shortages in health care professions have become a pressing issue across many Canadian jurisdictions and were especially exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. To help address these shortages, federal, provincial and territorial governments have implemented measures to facilitate the entry of skilled immigrants with health care qualifications into their respective professions, among other government actions to strengthen the health workforce. However, comprehensive data on the numbers, sociodemographic characteristics and labour market outcomes of internationally educated health professionals (IEHPs) remain scarce. This article provides estimates of the number of IEHPs in Canada based on 2021 Census data.Release date: 2023-08-23
- 3. Quality of employment and labour market dynamics of health care workers during the COVID-19 pandemicArticles and reports: 75-006-X202300100007Description: Using new data from the Labour Force Survey, this article explores how the COVID-19 pandemic and increasing levels of unmet labour demand in the health care industry have affected the health care labour force. Specifically, this article looks at various aspects of employment quality among health care workers, including absences, overtime and wages, and changes in work quality over the course of the pandemic. The article proceeds to explore how these changing job characteristics affected health care workers and their likelihood to leave their current positions.Release date: 2023-08-10

This study is based on data from the Census of Population and the Longitudinal Immigration Database to provide a profile of immigrants in nursing and health care support occupations. It also examines the representation of immigrants in nursing and health care support occupations by intended occupation upon admission to Canada and by admission category. Lastly, it examines the professional integration of immigrants who completed their nursing education both in and outside Canada.

This booklet presents information on the population of healthcare workers who can speak or use English in Quebec and French in the rest of Canada. The selected indicators include rates of knowledge and use of the minority language at work as well as healthcare workers' geographic distribution, aging, immigration, interprovincial mobility and education characteristics. Data are taken from the Census of Population (2001, 2006 and 2016), National Household Survey (2011) and in some cases the Education and Labour Market Longitudinal Platform (ELMLP).

This report focuses on the services offered to official language minorities by healthcare professionals in Canada. It presents statistics on healthcare professionals who are official language minorities, able to conduct a conversation in the minority official language or those who use it in the workplace. For the years 2001 and 2011, the evolution of the healthcare services provided is analyzed and is compared with the official language minority population in Canada.
Release date: 2017-01-06 - 8. Experimental Measures of Output and Productivity in the Canadian Hospital Sector, 2002 to 2010 ArchivedArticles and reports: 15-206-X2014034Description:
Recent discussions about health care spending have focused on two issues: 1) the extent to which the increase in heath care spending is due to an increase in the quantity as opposed to the price of health care services, and 2) the efficiency and productivity of health care providers (e.g., hospital sectors, office of physicians, and long-term care).
The key to addressing both issues is a direct output measure of health care services—a measure that does not currently exist. In the National Accounts, output of the health care sector is measured by the volume of inputs, which includes labour costs for physicians, nurses and administrative staff, consumption of capital, and intermediate inputs. An input-based output measure assumes that there are no productivity gains in the health care sector. As a result, it does not provide a measure of productivity performance, nor does it allow a decomposition of total health care expenditures into price and output quantity components.
The main objective of this paper is to develop an experimental direct output measure for the Canadian hospital sector that can be used to address those issues. A large number of countries have already constructed a direct output measure of the hospital sector and other healthcare sectors.
