Data Sources and Calculations
Industry Data
In order to capture a complete picture of industry employment, EMSI combines employment data from Survey of
Employment, Payrolls and Hours (SEPH) with data from the Labour Force Survey (LFS), Census, and Canadian
Business Patterns (CBP) to form detailed geographic estimates of employment. Projections are based on the
latest available EMSI industry data, 10-year past local trends in each industry and growth rates from national
industry projections from the Canadian Occupational Projection System (COPS) produced by Human Resources
and Skills Development Canada.
Occupation Data
Organizing regional employment information by occupation provides a workforce-oriented view of the regional
economy. EMSI's occupation data are based on EMSI's industry data, regional occupation data from the Labour
Force Survey (LFS), and regional staffing patterns taken from the Census.
