NORTHERN ONTARIO'S COMMUNITY ACCOUNTS
sharing DATA providing INFORMATION developing KNOWLEDGE
The Multi-Variable Regional Comparison Feature is designed for retrieving topics for different geographies to aid in making comparisons. Select any number of variables from a single table, and then specify your table options such as geography type, age group, or gender (if applicable). Results will be shown for all geographies of the selected type and can be easily exported to excel for further work.
Table Information
Selected account: Employment and Working Conditions
This variable classifies persons who reported a job into the following categories: (a)
persons who worked mainly for wages, salaries, commissions, tips,
piece-rates, or payments 'in kind' (payments in goods or services rather
than money); (b) persons who worked mainly for themselves, with or
without paid help, operating a business, farm or professional practice,
alone or in partnership; (c) persons who worked without pay in a
family business, farm or professional practice owned or operated by a
related household member; unpaid family work does not include unpaid
housework, unpaid childcare, unpaid care to seniors and volunteer work. The
job reported was the one held in the week (Sunday to Saturday) prior to
enumeration (May 16, 2006) if the person was employed, or the job of
longest duration since January 1, 2005, if the person was not employed
during the reference week. Persons with two or more jobs in the
reference week were asked to provide information for the job at which
they worked the most hours.
