Acknowledgements

Sincere thanks are due to the many people who contributed in various ways to this document.

Of particular note are those who were the primary authors of various chapters: Jean-François Beaumont, René Boyer, Guy Laflamme, Danielle Lebrasseur, John Lindeyer and Claude Turmelle. These people worked on different aspects of the 2004 redesign of the methodology of the Labour Force Survey, and thus were the best people to write about it.

Besides these, many other people in Household Survey Methods Division, Labour Statistics Division, and elsewhere in Statistics Canada, were also involved in the planning, reviewing, verification, revision, translation and production of this document.  Sincere thanks are due to all of them.

Note of appreciation

Canada owes the success of its statistical system to a long-standing partnership between Statistics Canada, the citizens of Canada, its businesses, governments and other institutions. Accurate and timely statistical information could not be produced without their continued co-operation and goodwill.

Standards of service to the public

Statistics Canada is committed to serving its clients in a prompt, reliable and courteous manner. To this end, the Agency has developed standards of service which its employees observe in serving its clients.
