This is a monthly report designed to assist analysts monitoring changes in inter-provincial and inter-industrial earnings and employment levels. The report

provides figures on persons employed and actual dollars earned. Primary emphasis, however, is placed on the 'percentage change' data to help highlight

recent trends and/or structural shifts.

Definitions and Explanatory Notes

Average Hourly Wage Rate & Average Weekly Wage Rate

Beginning January 1997, information is collected on the usual wages or salary of employees at their main job.

Respondents are asked to report their wage/salary before taxes and other deductions, and include tips,

commissions and bonuses.

Average Weekly Hours Worked

Average actual number of hours worked per week, main job, is calculated by dividing total hours by the total

number of employed persons. When a respondent holds more than one job or business, the job or business

involving the greatest number of usual hours worked is considered to be the main job.

Constant Dollar or Real (after inflation) Average Weekly Wage Rate

Average weekly wage rates, as defined above, minus the rate of inflation as measured by the applicable

B.C. or Canada consumer price index.

Employment (derived from Labour Force Survey, Cat No. 71-001) (Actual)

All persons during the reference week who either a) did any work for pay or profit, or b) had a job but were

absent because of illness, weather, vacation, labour disputes, or personal or family responsibility.

Employment by Industry

Employment by industry is based on the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS).
