Introduction

Manufacturing is one of the key goods-producing sectors in Saskatchewan’s economy. An expanding manufacturing sector is one indication that economic diversification is occurring within Saskatchewan. This report is an update of a previous overview, prepared using the most current available data – 2018 in most cases. The report looks at changes in manufacturing indicators over time and also compares these indicators with those for the other provinces and for Canada as a whole. The major indicators for Saskatchewan’s manufacturing sector covered in this report are manufacturing GDP, establishments, employment, shipments, earnings, exports and capital investment. The data used in the report was obtained from the following Statistics Canada sources:

1. Real GDP

Manufacturing GDP (also known as manufacturing value-added) measures net output, that is, gross output less purchased inputs that have been embodied in the value of the manufactured products. Manufacturing GDP provides a fair idea of the degree of transformation which occurs within the manufacturing industries.

From 2008 to 2018, Saskatchewan’s manufacturing sector had an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 2.1%, with real GDP rising from $4.3B in 2008 to $5.3B in 2018. In comparison, Saskatchewan’s total real GDP grew, on average, by 1.7% per year in the same period.

In 2018, real GDP for Saskatchewan’s manufacturing sector was up by 5.1% from $5B in 2017. According to Statistics Canada, the net gain of $257M was due to an increase in chemical manufacturing (+$118.4M), food manufacturing (+$66M), fabricated metal product manufacturing ($30.5M), transportation equipment (+29.4M) and machinery manufacturing (+$12.1M), which were offset by declines in primary metal manufacturing (-$30M), wood product manufacturing (-$12.7M) and computer and electronic product manufacturing (-$11.7M).

In real dollar terms, manufacturing’s contribution to total provincial GDP was 6.4% in 2018, up from 6.2% in 2008.

Compared to Saskatchewan’s other goods-producing sectors, manufacturing’s share of total GDP ranked fifth-largest in 2018, behind oil and gas (14.6% of real GDP), mining (10.7% of real GDP), agriculture (8.5% of real GDP) and construction (7.1% of real GDP).

3. Manufacturing Productivity

Manufacturing GDP per worked hour is one measure of labour productivity in the manufacturing sector. It is a net output per worked hour, as the cost of materials and supplies, energy, water utilities and vehicle fuel used are excluded. Manufacturing GDP per worked hour measures the extent to which labour is efficiently used in the manufacturing sector.

Manufacturing productivity may fall if the sector does not adequately invest in its labour force, or does not improve the efficiency of its operations. Increases in the use of technology and capital inputs allow labour to be more productive.

From 2008 to 2018, manufacturing productivity increased at a rate of 2.3% per year, on average. During this period, productivity in the agriculture sector grew by 3.9% per year, on average. Productivity in the construction sector decreased at an annual average rate of 0.2%. The provincial aggregate increased by 0.9% per year, on average during the same period.

In 2018, manufacturing productivity stood at $90.33 per worked hour, ahead of primary agriculture ($87.07 per worked hour) and construction ($54.34 per worked hour), but behind mining and oil and gas ($486.1 per worked hour) and real estate, rental and leasing ($610.74 per worked hour). The provincial aggregate (for all industries) was $79.61 per worked hour in 2018. Between 2017 and 2018, manufacturing productivity increased by 1.0%, compared with an increase of 0.5% for all industries.
