Human Resources Module of the Canadian economy, 2022
The Human Resources Module (HRM) of the Canadian economy is a product that depicts annual estimates of jobs, hours worked, and wages and salaries consistent with System of National Accounts concepts by characteristics of the employees holding those jobs. This includes age group, gender, education level, and immigration status. Statistics Canada has published HRM estimates for a number of sectors of the Canadian economy, including the tourism, non-profit organizations and natural resources sectors. This release of economy-wide HRM estimates represents an integrated approach to generating fully coherent sector benchmarks and provides a total economy point of reference against which sector-specific HRMs can be compared. Monthly statistics on employment by characteristic are available from the Labour Force Survey and should be consulted for current economy-wide trends.
