- 1. Is the workplace becoming safer? ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200610713168Geography: CanadaDescription:
As in Europe and other parts of North America, compensation claims for lost workdays in Canada have generally declined. Although this event is encouraging, the rate of decrease may not be uniform for all age groups, industries or regions. Workplace injuries among young workers aged 15 to 24 are of particular interest in this look at injury claim rates in Ontario and British Columbia.

Release date: 2006-09-19 - Articles and reports: 75-001-X20000025070Geography: CanadaDescription:
Payroll taxes have grown substantially since the early 1980s, and have become an increasingly important source of government revenues.

This article compares the socioeconomic and health characteristics of the household population aged 35 to 64 with and without self-reported heart disease.

Release date: 1997-12-31 - 8. Work absences and compensation ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X19960032894Geography: CanadaDescription:
Prolonged absences from work can have major financial consequences for both employees and employers. This article explores trends in absences of two weeks or more due to illness or accident. Sources of compensation received by employees are examined by industry sector.
Release date: 1996-09-03 - Articles and reports: 11F0019M1996090Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper outlines the structure of payroll taxes and documents evidence on the level, growth and role of each component over the last three decades for Canada and for each province. Levied by both the federal and provincial governments, payroll taxes in Canada include four major components: i) unemployment insurance (UI) premiums; ii) Canada/Quebec Pension Plan (C/QPP) contributions; iii) workers compensation (WC) premiums; and iv) the provincial health/post-secondary education (H/E) tax levied by Quebec, Manitoba, Ontario and Newfoundland. While the UI and C/QPP components are levied on both employers and employees, the WC and H/E components are levied on employers only. Our main findings are 1) payroll taxes have increased substantially over the last three decades in Canada as a whole and in every province; 2) the structure, level, growth and role of each component of payroll taxes vary remarkably from one province to another; 3) the expansion of the UI component in recent years has been the largest contributor to the rise in payroll taxes across every province in the country; and 4) despite significant growth in recent years, payroll taxes are still much lower in Canada than in most other western industrialized countries.
