It’s the Canadian version of the Bureau of Labor Statistics but IMHO far better. I subscribe to The Daily – great information that any recruiter in Canada should be using to formulate and implement their recruiting strategies.
Here’s something for people like me who hate salary disparities…
2006 | 2001 | 1996 | |
Median earnings for males working full year, full time | 46,778 | 45,654 | 46,037 |
Median earnings for females working full year, full time | 35,830 | 34,488 | 34,130 |
[Females/Males] who worked 49 to 52 weeks (mostly full time) in the reference year for pay or in self-employment.
All income values are in constant (2005) dollars.
Earnings or employment income – Refers to total income received by persons 15 years of age and over during calendar year 2005 as wages and salaries, net income from a non-farm unincorporated business and/or professional practice, and/or net farm self-employment income.
Median earnings of individuals – The median employment income or earnings of a specified group of employment income recipients is that amount which divides their employment income size distribution, ranked by size of employment income, into two halves, i.e., the earnings of the first half of individuals are below the median, while those of the second half are above the median. Median earnings is calculated from the unrounded number of individuals (e.g., males 45 to 54 years of age) with earnings in that group.
It seems to be everywhere, doesn’t it?
