Navigation
The Index page of this spreadsheet provides a listing of all 210 industries, the name of each industry in the Index is hyper-linked to the page containing the labour force profile for the industry. To view the profile simply click on the name of the industry on the Index page. Links back to the Index page are provided in each tab.

Data
The labour force profiles are based on a special run from Statistics Canada's Labour Force Survey. Upon reviewing the data, you will see that at least some cells in each profile have been suppressed. For confidentiality reasons, Statistics Canada suppresses Labour Force Survey data for any cell that corresponds to less than 1,500 persons. In about 30 cases (where total employment in an industry is less than 1,500 in the Toronto CMA) all of the data in the profile have been suppressed. Profiles with missing data were included for consistency/completeness sake.

The Labour Force Survey is based on a monthly sample of approximately 2,800 households in the Toronto CMA; therefore, estimates will vary from the results of a complete census. For more information on the Labour Force Survey please see:
Statistics Canada - Labour Force Survey (LFS)

Industry classification
Industry classification is based on NAICS industry codes. For more information please see:
