Usage Considerations
The Labour Force Survey provides estimates of employment and unemployment which are among the most timely and important measures of performance of the Canadian economy.
Users may notice an “x” value in the CSV file. These denote figures that have been suppressed to meet confidentiality requirements of the Statistics Act.
Statistics Canada has an established history of applying a standard revision to the Labour Force Survey (LFS) estimates following the release of postcensal population estimates from each census of population.
This revision includes an update of the LFS estimates to reflect the most recent population estimates; an update of geographic boundaries; methodological enhancements to imputation; as well as an update of seasonal adjustment.
The latest revision has impacted the estimates for 2001 to 2014 and the revised figures have been released in late January and early February 2015.
