Notes and Definitions

The data and definitions in this report are drawn from Statistics Canada’s 2011 National Household Survey (NHS), a voluntary survey that replaced the mandatory long-form census in 2011. Comparability between 2006 Census and 2011 NHS: The 2006 Census includes residents in collective dwellings and persons living abroad, whereas the NHS excludes them. In addition, NHS data is derived from a voluntary survey with a potentially higher non-response error than in the 2006 Census. The KPU Region data presented in the data tables and charts are an aggregate of the census subdivision data that make up the KPU Region. The KPU Region includes Delta, Langley City, Langley District Municipality (Langley DM), Richmond, Surrey, White Rock, McMillan Island Indian Reserve, Semiahmoo Indian Reserve, and Tsawwassen Indian Reserve. Labour Force: Individuals aged 15 and over who were employed or unemployed and looking for work during the week of Sunday, May 1st, 2011 to Saturday, May 7th, 2011. Not in the labour force: Individuals who were unwilling or unable to offer or supply labour services under conditions existing in their labour markets during the week of Sunday, May 1st to Saturday, May 7th, 2011. Employed: Individuals who had a job or business during the week of Sunday, May 1st, 2011 to Saturday, May 7th, 2011. Unemployed: Individuals who were without work, were available for work, and were actively seeking work during the week of Sunday, May 1st, 2011 to Saturday, May 7th, 2011. Participation rate: Individuals in the labour force during the week of May 1st, 2011 to Saturday, May 7th, 2011, expressed as a percentage of the total population aged 15 years and over. Employment rate: Individuals employed during the week of Sunday, May 1st, 2011 to Saturday, May 7th, 2011, expressed as a percentage of the total population aged 15 years and over. Unemployment rate: Individuals unemployed during the week of Sunday, May 1st, 2011 to Saturday, May 7th, 2011, expressed as a percentage of the labour force. Random rounding and percentage distributions: The data in the various sub-categories of a data table may not add up to the total column in the same data table due to the random rounding technique used by Statistics Canada to ensure the confidentiality of responses. Each number in a dataset ends in either zero or five and the values are rounded at random, not necessarily to the closest number, to produce unbiased rounded results. Counts ending in 0 or 5 are not changed and remain as 0 or 5. Due to random rounding, percentage distributions may not add up to 100%.

Global non-response rate (GNR): The GNR indicator combines complete non-response households and partial non-response questions into a single rate. A smaller GNR indicates a lower risk of non-response bias and as a result, a lower risk of inaccuracy. Data for any geographic area with a GNR of 50% and higher are not published by Statistics Canada.

Introduction

This analytical report presents Statistics Canada’s 2011 NHS results on labour for the KPU Region, often comparing it to the Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVRD), and to the province overall. The report contains the key labour market indicators such as the labour force participation, employment and unemployment rates, which provide an overall view of the state of the labour market in the KPU Region. Other topics covered include the labour force status by gender, employed labour force by age groups, total labour force by class of workers (public, private, and self-employed), by industry, and by major occupational groups, language use in the workplace, work activity (the number of weeks worked and full-time and part-time employment), employed labour force by place of work, and commute to work. The appendices of the report include detailed tables that present the NHS results on labour by the census subdivisions of the KPU Region.

1 The reason for the 0% unemployment rate in the McMillan Island Indian Reserve and the Semiahmoo Indian Reserve is the random rounding technique used by Statistics Canada. Using this technique may result in unreliable estimates in small sample sizes. Please use the data for the McMillan Island Indian Reserve and the Semiahmoo India Reserve with caution.
