The release of the 2010 Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID) data coincided with a historical revision of the 2006 to 2009 data. The survey weights were updated to take into account new population estimates based on the 2006 Census rather than the 2001 Census.
This paper presents a summary of the impact of this revision on the 2006 to 2009 survey estimates. The effects for each year are quite similar, and as a result, the annual trends from the data remain steady. However, in many cases, the actual levels of estimates do change.
