- Articles and reports: 81-595-M2024002Description: There has been a growing concern about future labor supply in skilled trades in Canada. Using data from the Census of Population and the Job Vacancy and Wage Survey (JVWS), this article examines changes in the number and demographic composition of tradespeople from 2016 to 2021 in Canada. Specifically, the study focuses on those employed in Red Seal trades, analyzing variations in age, gender, citizenship, and trade selection.Release date: 2024-09-26
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400900001Description: Little is known about the workforce utilization of Canadian men with a nursing education, who accounted for 12% of people eligible to practise nursing in 2021 (Canadian Institute for Health Information, 2022). This article compares racialized and White men aged 25 to 64 years with a nursing education in terms of their skill utilization in the workforce.Release date: 2024-09-25
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400900003Description: Intangible investments—investments that do not have a physical form—have been rising in importance in terms of use. From 1976 to 2016, the growth of intangible investments was faster than the growth of tangible investments. This study compares the performance of businesses owned by women (majority or equal ownership) that patent with that of majority men-owned businesses and businesses where gender of ownership cannot be assigned.Release date: 2024-09-25
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400900005Description: One of the goals of Canada’s immigration system is to fill labour and skills shortages. In spite of the interest in this topic, little is known regarding the actual occupations and skill levels of recent immigrants at entry and their pathways for getting there. This study fills that information gap by examining immigrants who landed in Canada in 2018 or 2019 and assessing their occupational outcomes two to three years later in May 2021.Release date: 2024-09-25
- Articles and reports: 75-005-M2024004Description: This article provides information about population totals in the Labour Force Survey (LFS), including details on who is included in the survey target population, and a description of the methodology used to produce monthly population totals in the LFS. The note also provides guidance on how to interpret population statistics in the LFS, and discusses the extent to which the LFS can be used to examine disaggregated labour market indicators for new immigrants and non-permanent residents.Release date: 2024-09-20
- Articles and reports: 75-005-M2024003Description: This document briefly describes the small area estimation methodology developed to produce monthly estimates of employment and unemployment rate for census metropolitan areas, census agglomerations, and self-contained labour areas using data from the Labour Force Survey, Employment Insurance statistics and population projections.Release date: 2024-09-17
- Articles and reports: 75-006-X202400100006Description: Using data from the Labour Force Survey, this study assesses the degree to which employment and hourly wage rates of unpartnered mothers with young children have caught up to their partnered peers between 1997 and 2023. Focusing on mothers aged 18 to 49 with at least one child aged 5 or younger, the analysis examines differences between partnered (i.e., currently married or living common law) and unpartnered mothers, with disaggregation by unpartnered mothers who have never been married and those who were previously married. The study also examines employment and wage gaps by various diverse groups, such as the experiences of immigrant mothers, as well as Indigenous mothers.Release date: 2024-09-11
- Articles and reports: 11F0019M2024005Description: This study provides experimental estimates of the number and percentage of workers in Canada potentially susceptible to AI-related job transformation based on the complementarity-adjusted AI occupational exposure index.Release date: 2024-09-03
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400800001Description: Investing in a postsecondary education is an important decision in the lives of young people, because it may lead to significantly higher lifetime earnings, which may vary substantially across different disciplines. The purpose of this short article is to present results for master’s degree graduates aged 25 to 34 collected on the 2021 Census of Population. Only individuals who worked during the census reference week (May 2 to 8, 2021) and who completed a Canadian master’s degree program are included.Release date: 2024-08-28
- Articles and reports: 75-006-X202400100005Description: This study uses various demographic scenarios to examine the effects of different immigration levels and labour force participation rates on the size and composition of the Canadian labour force to 2041. These scenarios take into account the targets of the 2024–2026 Immigration Levels Plan, published in November 2023 by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, as well as recent demographic developments, such as those related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the increase in the number of permanent and temporary immigrants admitted to Canada in 2022 and 2023.Release date: 2024-08-06
