- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202300700002Description: Household air conditioning is one of the most effective approaches for reducing the health impacts of heat exposure; however, few studies have measured the prevalence of household air conditioning in Canada. This study explores the prevalence of household air conditioning in Canada using two newly linked surveys: the 2017 Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) and the 2017 Households and the Environment Survey (HES). It is the first to quantify air conditioning prevalence in Canada at the person-level.Release date: 2023-07-19
- Articles and reports: 11F0019M2023005Description: Despite evidence showing that early childhood educators and assistants are at risk of contracting infectious or non-infectious diseases or suffering physical injuries, no Canadian study has investigated the degree to which: a) early childhood educators and assistants incur work absences due to injury or illness in a given year; b) such absences are associated with an increased likelihood of leaving the child care sector during that year or subsequent years. This study fills this information gap.Release date: 2023-06-14
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202300300004Description: This article presents an overview of interjurisdictional employment in Canada over the 2002-to-2019 period. Interjurisdictional employees are individuals who maintain their primary residence in their home province or territory while working outside this province or territory. The results are based on Statistics Canada’s Canadian Employer-Employee Dynamic Database and pertain to employees aged 18 or older earnings at least $1,000 in 2016 dollars within Canada.Release date: 2023-03-22
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202200600003Description:
Every year, thousands of Canadian workers lose their job. The opportunities for coping with job loss through postsecondary education (PSE) transitions might be unequally distributed across Canadian families, perhaps even more so than across Canadian workers. Using data from Statistics Canada’s Longitudinal Worker File (LWF), the T1 Family File (T1FF), the Post-Secondary Information System (PSIS), and the 2006 Census of Population, this study quantifies the degree to which the likelihood of entering PSE or a new field of study after job loss varies, all else equal, across types of family units and, among dual-earner couples, with the earnings or the risk of job loss of the spouse.

Canadian immigrants from countries where the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are endemic may be at higher risk of liver-related disease than Canadian-born residents. This study compared HBV- and HCV-related hospitalizations in Canadian immigrants (arriving from 1980 to 2013) and long-term residents (Canadian-born population and pre-1980 immigrants) and aimed to describe the burden of disease in both groups.

Using 2016 Census and administrative data, this study estimates the differences in weekly earnings received by workers in designated visible minority and White categories, as defined by the Employment Equity Act, employed in four broad sectors of the Canadian workforce. Of central interest is whether differences in weekly earnings between these categories were larger in small and medium-size commercial enterprises than they were in large commercial enterprises and in organizations and enterprises in the non-commercial sector.
Release date: 2022-02-23 - Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202200100004Description:
Using data from the 2016 Census, this study compares the weekly earnings of individuals in designated visible minority and White categories, as defined in the Employment Equity Act. This paper addresses three sets of research questions. First, in 2015, were there significant differences in the estimated weekly earnings of individuals in designated visible minority categories relative to White people? Among which designated visible minority categories were differences in weekly earnings largest? Were these differences similar among women and men? Second, to what extent did sociodemographic and employment characteristics account for differences in average weekly earnings across designated visible minority and White categories? And third, were differences in average weekly earnings narrower, wider or about the same in 2015 as in 2005?

When a survey publishes statistics with a quality indicator, it is usually derived from measures based on sampling theory. The production of quality indicators is a significant challenge when statistics are produced using alternative sources for which no sampling is done. This paper describes a new method used to create a quality indicator that combines indicators obtained at different stages of data processing. An example of the application of the method in the Canadian Housing Statistics Program is provided in the Appendix.
Release date: 2022-01-06 - Articles and reports: 11-633-X2021009Description:
This study assesses the degree to which administrative data, namely the Statistics Canada Longitudinal Worker File, can be used to construct individuals’ work histories. It describes why information obtained from work histories is useful, provides a brief overview of Canadian datasets that have measured work histories to date, and highlights the strengths and weaknesses of the Longitudinal Worker File, and household surveys regarding the construction of individuals’ work histories.

In light of increasing Canadian immigration levels, an updated analysis of hospitalization patterns among immigrants to Canada, relative to the Canadian-born population, is needed to inform health care system policy and planning. Using immigrant landing administrative data linked to health care data, this descriptive study aims to examine hospitalization rates and leading causes of hospitalization, including mental health in immigrants and the Canadian-born population, stratified by sex and selected immigration characteristics.
