This chart shows two bars, one for 2001 and one for 2006 for each of three groups. The number of immigrants who use only a non-official language at work, the number who use an non-official language mainly or most of the time at work, and the number of immigrants who use an official language most of the time but also us non-official language.  In each case the bar for 2006 is longer than the bar for 2001, indicating that more immigrants use a non-official language at work whether exclusively, mostly or additionally at the last census.
