Correspondence Table: National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2016 V1.3 to National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2021 V1.0 based on GSIM

Updated: September 14, 2023

The Generic Statistical Information Model (GSIM) is now used to identify the types of changes made to the classification. Real changes (RC) are those affecting the scope of the existing classification items or categories, whether or not accompanied by changes in the title, definition and/or the coding. Virtual changes (VC) are those made in coding, titles and/or definitions, while the meaning or scope of the classification item remains the same. The "real changes" are the most important ones to note for analysis.

Notice of release of the National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2021 Version 1.0

Structural Revision

The publication of the National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2021 is the thirtieth anniversary of the standard occupational classification system and it introduces a major structural change. The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 overhauls the "Skill Level" structure by introducing a new categorization representing the degree of Training, Education, Experience and Responsibilities (TEER) required for an occupation. The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 also introduces a new 5-digit hierarchical structure, compared to a 4-digit hierarchical structure in the previous versions of the classification. The NOC has been developed and maintained as part of a collaborative partnership between Employment and Social Development Canada and Statistics Canada. This revision is extensive; the last structural revision was NOC 2011.

1. Overview

The Open Database of Recreational and Sport Facilities (ODRSF) is a database of recreational and sport facilities released as open data. Data sources include various levels of government within Canada^{Footnote 1} and professional organizations. This document details the process of collecting, compiling, and standardizing the individual datasets used to create the ODRSF.

This dataset is one of a number of datasets created as part of the Linkable Open Data Environment (LODE). The LODE is an exploratory initiative that aims at enhancing the use and harmonization of open data from authoritative sources by providing a collection of datasets released under a single licence, as well as open-source code to link these datasets together. Access to the LODE datasets and code are available through the Statistics Canada website and can be found at the Linkable Open Data Environment.

The ODRSF is made available under the Open Government Licence – Canada. In its current version (Version 1.0), the ODRSF contains approximately 182,000 individual records. The database is expected to be updated periodically as new open datasets become available. The ODRSF is provided as a compressed comma separated values (CSV) file.

2. Data Sources

A total of 452 data sources were used to create the ODRSF. The sources used are detailed in a 'Data Sources' CSV file provided together with the data file on the ODRSF webpage. The links to the original datasets, licenses or terms of use, attribution statements and additional notes are also included in the 'Data Sources' CSV file. All recreational and sport facility data in the ODRSF were collected from government data sources, either from open data portals or from publicly-available web pages.

The distinction between open and other publicly available data is based on the licensing terms attached to each source dataset used. Open data licenses permit, in varying degrees, usability for any lawful purpose, redistribution (re-sharing) and modification and re-packaging of the data. However, open data licenses can impose some restrictions, such as attribution of original source, share-alike (re-sharing only with like conditions), and no commercial use. In general, no warranty is expressed and there are minor conditions stipulated by the provider.

Publicly available data, that are not associated with an open data license, are generally provided with terms of use that may restrict some of the aspects that would otherwise be permitted under open data licensing.

For further information on the individual licences or terms of use, users should consult the information provided on the open data portals or web sites of the various data providers, as reported in the Data Sources CSV file.

3. Reference Period

The Data Sources CSV reports, when this is known, either the update frequency or the date each underlying dataset was last updated by the provider (this information is collected at the time the dataset was accessed for this project). Additionally, the Data Sources CSV provides the date that each dataset used in the ODRSF was downloaded or provided by the organization that is the source of the data. Data were gathered in 2020 and 2021. Users are cautioned that the download date should not be used as an indication of the reference date of the data.

4. Target Population

For the purposes of the ODRSF database, recreational and sport facilities are facilities wherein the primary activity is concerned with either recreation or sport. The target population includes brick and mortar recreational and sport facilities that offer programs or services to the general public as well as those such as trails for hiking or skiing, sports fields, and other types of facilities that may be located outside of brick and mortar structures.

In terms of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), the facilities in the ODRSF are primarily in the following sub-sectors:

7112 – Spectator sports
7131 – Amusement parks and arcades
7139 – Other amusement and recreation industries

Facilities are included when their primary activities are related to recreation or sports, regardless of the source of funding, private or public status, operator type, location or other attributes. However, facilities that are not open to the general public are not included. It should be noted that the focus of the ODRSF is on the facility (point of service). This may or may not correspond to a business entity, as some facilities such as trails or beaches may not be associated with any business entity while others, for example a multi-sport complex, may be related to a number of discrete entities.

5. Compilation Methodology

Data Standardization and Cleaning

The first processing component for compiling the ODRSF database was comprised of reformatting the source data to CSV format and mapping the original dataset attributes to standard variable (field) names. This was done using a version of the custom OpenTabulate software developed by the LODE team. A data dictionary of the variables used is provided in section 7. The methodology and limitations of the techniques used in each step used in the data cleaning process are described below.

Address Parsing

Natural language processing methods were used for parsing and separation of address strings into address variables, such as street number and postal code (which is removed from the final released database). The methods are reputable in the field for performance and accuracy, but as with all statistical learning methods, they have limitations as well. Poor or unconventional formatting of addresses may result in incorrect parsing. At this stage, no further integration with other address sources was attempted; hence, although address records are generally expected to be correct, residual errors may be present in the current version of the database.

When address information was available, addresses were parsed using the same methodology applied to other LODE databases such as the Open Database of Education Facilities and the Open Database of Cultural and Arts Facilities. The libpostal address parser, an open source natural language processing solution to parsing addresses, was used to split concatenated address strings into strings corresponding to address variables, such as street name and street number. Occasionally, addresses were split incorrectly due to unconventional formatting of the original address.^{Footnote 2}

For instance, a limited number of entries were manually edited when it was clear that the parsing had not been done correctly. An example is addresses with hyphenated numbers such as "1035-55 street nw", which may have been interpreted as having a civic number of "1035-55" and a street name of "street nw", rather than a civic number of 1035, and a street name of "55 street nw". While effort was made to ensure that the results are correct, it is possible that the scripts used to process and parse the addresses may unintentionally cause other, undetected, errors.

Removal of Duplicates

As data were sourced from entities with geographically overlapping jurisdictions (e.g., a province, municipality and a private sector organization), the same record can appear in more than one source dataset. The removal of duplicates was done using both literal and fuzzy string matching on the facility name and street name, conditioned on the street number and province; by "conditioned," it is meant that a fuzzy comparison between two facilities is made provided that the street numbers and provinces agree. The fuzzy comparison is done using Levenshtein distances calculated through the Python package FuzzyWuzzy,^{Footnote 3} which returns a similarity score between 0 and 100 for two strings where a score of 100 indicates that the shorter string is a sub-string of the larger string. An entry is marked as a duplicate when that score meets a given threshold of similarity.

If two entries contained identical street number and province information, then their street names and facility names were compared. When these were nearly identical (defined as having the sum of the similarity scores for the facility names and street names to be at least 195 out of a possible 200), then the entries were marked as duplicates. Recognized duplicates were deleted without manual intervention. The chosen threshold was selected close to the maximum score, which minimized any removal of false positives. When duplicates were found, whichever record contained more non-empty fields was retained. In total, 5,937 duplicates were removed.

Although deduplication techniques are used, not all duplicates might have been removed. Modifying the deduplication methods to seek out the remaining duplicates would generate numerous false positives, which would require additional manual intervention.

Identification of Invalid Entries and Other Data Cleaning Steps

Identifying erroneous entries was done both programmatically and manually. Data entries that could not be correctly processed by automated techniques were filtered and stored in a separate file and manually corrected later. Data entries were formatted through the removal of excess whitespace and punctuation, standardization of fields such as postal code, and province/territory names.

Classification and Assignment of Recreational and Sport Facility Type

The original data sources use a variety of standards, classifications and nomenclature to describe the various types of recreational and sport facility. With no classification for recreational and sport facilities that is broadly adopted and recognized in Canada, one of the main challenges in the implementation of the ODRSF was the harmonization of records into comparable groups. Assignment of facility type was largely based on facility types provided by source datasets. In instances where facility type was either unclear or not defined by the source, facility type was classified based on further research or using meta-information, such as name of dataset.

The following classification of recreational and sport facilities is used for Version 1.0 of the ODRSF. While most of the class names are self-explanatory, further clarifications are provided below. In addition, and where available, the facility types as provided in the data sources (e.g., outdoor pool, tennis court, sports field, etc.) are also included in the ODRSF without any modification, reassignment, or mapping to a uniform classification.

trails: urban and rural trails or pathways for walking, hiking, or biking.
sports fields: fields on which sports can be played.
arenas: facilities where sports and/or recreational activities take place.
athletic parks: recreation areas focused on athletic activity.
beaches: waterfront beach areas.
casinos: casino or gambling facilities.
community centres: community centres and leisure facilities.
gyms: both public and private gym facilities.
marinas: marina facilities.
parks: parks and greenspaces, including both city and national parks.
playgrounds: play spaces which are distinct from parks in that they have specifically been classified as such by the publisher of the data. Often includes playground equipment.
pools: indoor and outdoor swimming pools.
race tracks: tracks for racing.
rinks: most commonly ice rinks.
skate parks: parks used for skateboarding.
splash pads: urban areas for water play.
stadiums: facilities where sports and/or recreational activities take place.
miscellaneous: facilities that do not fall into any of the above categories.

The classification is intended to have broad categories that are helpful in distinguishing major types of facilities and yet enable accuracy in mapping source-specific facility types. Facility types are determined from source-specific facility types and source coverage metadata information. Assignments are made using keywords and validated afterwards, with changes made manually whenever needed. When classifying facilities based on source metadata information, this was done analytically on a case by case basis.

The sports field classification category combines multiple types of sports fields such as baseball fields, soccer fields, and others. Where available, the detailed information on the type of sports field is preserved in the Source Facility Type variable.

Geocoding and Determination of Census Subdivision

In general, the data included in the ODRSF are what is available from the original sources without imputation. The exception to this is the geocoding and the imputation of CSD names and categories, discussed below.

Census subdivision (CSD)^{Footnote 4} names were derived from two different attributes in the data. The first attribute comprises the geographic coordinates, namely latitude and longitude. These are placed into the corresponding CSDs by linking the coordinate points to the CSD polygons through a spatial join operation using the Python package GeoPandas.^{Footnote 5}

The second attribute is the city name, where literal string matching was done with each recreational and sport facility municipality name and a list of CSD names.^{Footnote 6}

Geocoding was carried out for some sources that provide address data but no geo-coordinates. Latitude and longitude were determined and validated using tools on the internet. A subset of the source-provided geo-coordinates were also validated using the internet.

6. Database Coverage

The current version of the ODRSF (Version 1.0) database as provided contains approximately 182,000 recreational and sport facilities.

As the total number of all recreational and sport facilities in the country is not known with a reasonable degree of certainty, the coverage obtained with the sources used was not able to be thoroughly quantitatively assessed. Looking at the individual category of golf courses, however, shows that the ODRSF contains 592 golf courses, approximately 25% of all the 2,182 golf courses estimated to be in Canada.^{Footnote 7} Likewise, there were 1,303 rinks and arenas located in the ODRSF, approximately 60% of the 2,183 rinks^{Footnote 8} and arenas estimated to be in Canada. The distribution of the latter category showed similar coverage trends across geographies, with 82% to 87% of arenas and rinks respectively being located in Ontario and the Prairie provinces compared to an estimated two-thirds for these types of facilities overall.

From the above results, it is clear that the ODSRF is not a comprehensive listing of facilities within Canada. This is to be expected since not all jurisdictions publish data on recreational and sport facilities or categorize them in the same ways. The exception to this is when sources do purport to list all facilities of a certain type within a jurisdiction so for those particular facility type categories and jurisdictions; for those sources, coverage would be expected to be fairly complete. However, if facilities of a certain category were omitted by a source, then those facilities might be missing from the database unless they were obtained from a different source.

8. Data Accuracy

All addresses were collected from authoritative government sources, made available to the public as open data. In general, other than the processing required to harmonize the different sources into one database, the underlying datasets obtained from the various open data portals were taken "as-is".

During the processing stage to create the ODRSF, several steps were taken to standardize the output, including the standardization of street types and a deduplication of entries. It is possible that the process used to standardize the addresses may have introduced some errors, but these are expected to be minimal. Likewise, it is possible that duplicate entries remain in the database. To control for possible processing inaccuracies, the full address column is also provided without standardization applied.

Footnote 2

Exceptions are entries with street numbers of the form of two numbers separated by a hyphen or space. Entries of this form usually indicate that the address parser incorrectly parsed a numbered street name (e.g., "123 100 ave" is parsed into the street number "123 100" and the street name "ave", or else that a unit has not been identified correctly (as in "3-100 main st"). Numbers of this form are automatically separated, where the right most number is prepended to the street name if the street name is a variant of the word "street" or "avenue." Otherwise, the left most number is appended to the unit column.

The Open Database of Recreational and Sport Facilities

Catalogue number: 21260002
Issue number: 2021001

The Open Database of Recreational and Sport Facilities (ODRSF) is a collection of open data containing the names, types, and locations of recreational and sport facilities across Canada. It is released under the Open Government Licence - Canada.

The ODRSF compiles open, publicly available, and directly-provided data on recreational and sport facilities across Canada. Data sources include provincial, territorial and municipal governments. This database aims to provide enhanced access to a harmonized listing of recreational and sport facilities across Canada by making them available as open data. This database is a component of the Linkable Open Data Environment (LODE).

Data sources and methodology

The inputs for the ODRSF are datasets whose sources include provincial, territorial and municipal governments. These datasets were available either under one of the various types of open data licences, e.g., in an open government portal, or as publicly available data. Details of the sources used are available in a 'Data Sources' table located within the downloadable zipped ODRSF folder.

The data sources used do not deploy a uniform classification system. The ODRSF harmonizes facility type by assigning one of eighteen types to each facility. This was done based on the facility type provided in the source data as well as using other research carried out for that purpose.

The eighteen facility types used in the ODRSF are:

trails: urban and rural trails or pathways for walking, hiking, or biking.
sports fields: fields on which sports can be played.
arenas: facilities where sports and/or recreational activities take place.
athletic parks: recreation areas focused on athletic activity.
beaches: waterfront beach areas.
casinos: casino or gambling facilities.
community centres: community centres and leisure facilities.
gyms: both public and private gym facilities.
marinas: marina facilities.
parks: parks and greenspaces, including both city and national parks.
playgrounds: play spaces which are distinct from parks in that they have specifically been classified as such by the publisher of the data. Often includes playground equipment.
pools: indoor and outdoor swimming pools.
race tracks: tracks for racing.
rinks: most commonly ice rinks.
skate parks: parks used for skateboarding.
splash pads: urban areas for water play.
stadiums: facilities where sports and/or recreational activities take place.
miscellaneous: facilities that do not fall into any of the above categories.

The ODRSF does not assert having exhaustive coverage and may not contain all facilities in scope for the current version. While efforts have been made to minimize these, facility type classification and geolocation errors are also possible. While all data are released on the same date, the dates as of which data are current depends on the update dates of the sources used.

A subset of geo-coordinates available in the source data were validated using the internet and updated as needed. When latitude and longitude were not available, geocoding was performed for some sources using address data in the source street address.

Deduplication was done to remove duplicates for cases where sources overlapped in coverage.

This first version of the database (version 1.0) contains approximately 182,000 records. Data were collected by accessing sources in 2020 and 2021.

The variables included in the ODRSF are as follows:

Index
Facility Name
Source Facility Type

Street Type
Street Direction
Postal Code
City
Province or Territory

Introduction to the National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2021 Version 1.0

Preface

The publication of the National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2021 is the thirtieth anniversary of the standard occupational classification system and it introduces a major structural change. The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 overhauls the "Skill Level" structure by introducing a new categorization representing the degree of Training, Education, Experience and Responsibilities (TEER) required for an occupation. The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 also introduces a new 5-digit hierarchical structure, compared to a 4-digit hierarchical structure in the previous versions of the classification. This revision is extensive; the last structural revision was NOC 2011.

Acknowledgements

The National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2021 is published, in partnership by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) and Statistics Canada (StatCan). The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 has been made possible through the significant contributions of a number of individuals and groups, including a team of occupational research analysts and assistants from both ESDC and StatCan. Their commitment to excellence is evident in this new version of the NOC's foundational system used for structuring and describing occupations in the Canadian labour market and for managing the collection, analysis and reporting of occupational statistics. The partnership and collaboration between ESDC and StatCan has ensured that quantitative and qualitative information on occupations continues to be reliable, timely and relevant for a wide range of audiences.

Purpose of the classification

The National Occupational Classification (NOC) Canada is a classification of occupations designed primarily for use in statistical programs. It is also used for employment-related program administration and to compile, analyze and communicate information about occupations, such as labour market information. Occupational information is of critical importance for the provision of labour market and career intelligence, occupational forecasting, labour supply and demand analysis, employment equity, job training and skills development, and numerous other programs and services. It provides a standardized framework for organizing the world of work, for pay or profit, in a manageable, understandable and coherent system.

Statistical classifications are comprehensive structured lists of mutually exclusive categories or classification items^{Footnote 1}. In practice, this means that there is always a category in the classification for an object that falls within the scope of the classification, and that the object can be classified in only one category. The section titled "The underlying concepts" further discusses the object and scope of NOC.

The structure of the NOC is hierarchical. This type of classification system enables the collection, analysis and publication of data at different levels of detail, in a standardized way. The section titled "The classification structure and coding system" discusses the structure of the NOC in greater detail.

The purpose of standard classifications is to support the integration of data obtained from multiple sources by organizing the documentation, collection, processing, presentation and analysis of data in a systematic manner. Classifications are essential elements of a coherent and efficient statistical system.

The NOC has been developed to support the integration of occupational statistics. The next section provides a background on the NOC, the potential impact of the redesign and a sense of the different applications of the classification.

Background

The NOC was jointly developed by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) and Statistics Canada (StatCan), and has been maintained in partnership since the first edition published in 1991/1992. Prior to 2011, ESDC NOC and StatCan NOC-S differed in their major group structures and, consequently, in their coding systems. However, the revised NOC 2011 eliminated the differences between the two former systems.

As the Canadian economy and society changes, it is common practice for classifications to be updated and revised as new industries, products, occupations and educational programs are introduced. NOC structural revisions are planned every 10 years and content was updated every 5 years to respond to labour market changes. Starting in 2017, the NOC 2016 has undergone content updates approximately every year to ensure users have the most up-to-date information. This publication of the National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2021 represents a major structural revision of the NOC based on its 10-year revision cycle.

Revising the NOC

The NOC 2016 structure and format are based on a four-tiered hierarchical arrangement of occupational groups with successive levels of disaggregation. It contains broad occupational categories, major, minor and unit groups. It is categorized based on two major attributes of jobs, the "Broad Occupational Category" and the "Skill Level", as classification criteria. The former was defined as the type of work performed, with respect to the educational discipline or field of study for entry into an occupation and the industry of employment (e.g. health occupations or sales and service occupations). The "Skill Level" categorization is primarily defined by the amount and type of education and training usually required to enter and perform the duties of an occupation, but also considers experience, complexity and responsibilities. See NOC 2016 Structure below.

NOC 2016 Structure^{Footnote 2}

Meaning embedded in the coding system - first digit
Broad Occupational Category or the skill type criteria is…	when the first digit is…
Management occupations	0
Business, finance and administration occupations	1
Natural and applied sciences and related occupations	2
Health occupations	3
Occupations in education, law and social, community and government services	4
Occupations in art, culture, recreation and sport	5

Skill Level category or the skill level criteria is…	when the second digit is…
Skill Level A	0 or 1
Skill Level B	2 or 3
Skill Level C	4 or 5
Skill Level D	6 or 7

The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 was developed through ongoing discussions between ESDC and StatCan as well as consultations with stakeholders. During consultations leading toward the NOC 2021 revision, it was suggested to add a new "Level" to the NOC 2016 Skill level categorization, to clarify the distinction in formal training or education required among unit groups, especially in the current "Skill Level B", which has a wide range of formal training or educational requirements. Over time due to the changing world of work, the NOC 2016 "Skill Level B" became a disproportionately large group and thereby limited the ability to analyze distinctions amongst a large percentage of occupations.

Another observation during the revision process was the use of the "Skill Level" categorization in the NOC as possibly being misleading because training and education, which are the main building blocks of the NOC's "Skill Level" categorization, are not considered as "skills" in the labour market. With regards to skills, many countries and organizations are currently developing their own skills taxonomy (which include concepts such as numeracy and literacy). Therefore, it was deemed appropriate for the NOC to move away from the "Skill Level" categorization.

The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 represents a major structural revision whereby the existing occupational groups are reviewed alongside input collected from many relevant stakeholders through consultation. The main accomplishment of the NOC 2021 Version 1.0 was the overhaul of the "skill level" categorization by introducing a new categorization representing the degree of Training, Education, Experience and Responsibilities (TEER) required for an occupation.

The redesign of the NOC for 2021 moves away from the previous version of NOC with four "Skill Level" categories to an innovative six-grouping "TEER" categorization. This change is necessary for several reasons. First, the focus of the NOC is occupations and not skills and the "Skill Level" terminology is often misleading for many stakeholders. This change will reduce confusion. Second, some NOC users artificially create or infer a low- versus high-skill categorization. This redesign moves away from high/low skill categorization as the TEER more accurately captures differences in occupational requirements, which in turn will aid in the analysis of occupations.

The section titled "The classification structure and coding system" discusses the structure of the NOC 2021 Version 1.0 in greater detail.

These changes significantly improve how the NOC classification takes into account the distinctions in formal training and educational requirements and better reflects skill and knowledge development occurring through on-the-job experience. At the same time, it increases the homogeneity of the distribution of unit groups within the classification, and addresses concerns about the "Skill Level" categorization and the distribution of unit groups among them.

The transition from the "Skill Level" to the "TEER" categorization makes the distribution of occupations across the "TEER categories" more balanced. The change in the distribution of unit groups is summarized in the tables below.

Distribution of NOC Unit Groups by Skill Level / TEER

Distribution of NOC Unit Groups by Skill Level / TEER
NOC 2016 V1.3 Distribution of Unit Groups by Skill Level		NOC 2021 V1.0 Distribution of Unit Groups by TEER
		TEER Category 0	9%
Skill Level A	28%	TEER Category 1	19%
Skill Level B	42%	TEER Category 2	31%
Skill Level C	24%	TEER Category 3	13%
Skill Level D	6%	TEER Category 4	18%
		TEER Category 5	9%

The NOC is the nationally accepted taxonomy and organizational framework of occupations in the Canadian labour market. It is important to note that the redesign of the NOC can have significant implications for several Surveys, such as the Labour Force Survey (LFS), and ESDC programs such as the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and Employment Insurance program. This change may have significant impact on various programs throughout other federal departments, as well as provincial, territorial and municipal governments and many users of the NOC.

The NOC 2021 Version 1.0, as of August 10th, 2021, is now the departmental standard for data collection and dissemination for occupations at Statistics Canada. Implementation dates for each new classification version such as NOC 2021 Version 1.0 will vary based on when statistical surveys or programs, entities, organizations or individuals decide to use it.

The underlying concepts

Statistical classifications are built around three basic concepts: the object classified or statistical unit, the scope or universe of the classification, and the criteria used to group statistical units in standard categories or classification items.

The statistical unit

The basic principle of the NOC is the kind of work performed. The statistical unit or object being classified using the NOC is the concept of a "job". A job encompasses all the tasks carried out by a particular person to complete their duties. A job title represents the name given to a job or a position. The term job is used in reference to employment or in self-employment.

An occupation is defined as a collection of jobs, sufficiently similar or identical in work or tasks performed to be grouped under a common label for classification purposes.

The scope of the classification

The scope of the NOC is all occupations and jobs in the Canadian labour market undertaken for pay or profit, including people who are self-employed.

The NOC is not designed to include work or tasks not undertaken for pay or profit, for example, voluntary work. However, a person may complete work not for pay or profit where the tasks completed may be described within some occupational groups.

The classification criteria

The classification criteria refers to the attribute(s) of the statistical unit used to create the most detailed categories of the classification and to group them into analytical aggregates. These attributes must be observable and verifiable in the context of a statistical operation, or it must be possible to derive the information as a set of observed characteristics.

The NOC is built through the application of two major attributes of jobs as classification criteria: broad occupational categories and TEER categories. There are ten broad occupational categories and six TEER categories.

The ten broad occupational categories are defined by the type of work performed based on the industry of employment and field of study required for entry into an occupation. Within the broad occupational categories factors such as the materials processed or used, the industrial processes and the equipment used, as well as the products made and services provided, have also been considered when combining jobs into occupations and occupations into groups.
The six TEER categories stand for the Training, Education, Experience and Responsibilities required for occupations. A TEER category is defined by the amount and type of training and education required to enter and perform the duties of an occupation. It also takes into consideration the experience required and the complexity of responsibilities involved in the work. Each TEER category reflects commonly accepted paths to employment in an occupation.

The next section "The classification structure and coding system" provides more detail on how these two criteria together create the classification structure.

The Classification structure and coding system

The NOC contains a standard classification structure and standard variants of that structure. The standard structure is intended for broad use, whereas each variant is designed to meet a specific user need. The NOC provides a systematic classification structure that categorizes the entire range of occupational activity in Canada. Its' detailed occupations are identified and grouped primarily according to the work performed, as determined by the training, education, tasks, experiences, duties and responsibilities for an occupation.

The Standard NOC 2021 Version 1.0 classification structure

The standard classification structure uses a five-tiered hierarchical arrangement of occupational groups with successive levels of disaggregation and contains broad, major, sub-major, minor and unit groupings. The structure of the NOC 2021 Version 1.0 is based on two key occupational categorizations: Occupational categories and TEER categories, which are identified in the first two digits of the 5-digit code, as shown in the table below.

Standard NOC 2021 Version 1.0 classification structure
Title of Hierarchy	Format	Digit	Represents:
Broad Category	X	First Digit – X	Occupational categorization
Major Group	XX	Second Digit xX	TEER categorization
Sub-major Group	XXX	xxX	Top level of the Sub-Major Group
Minor Group	XXXX	xxXX	Hierarchy within the Sub-Major Group
Unit Group	XXXXX	xxXXX	Hierarchy within the Minor Group

Note: As the first digit identifies the Occupation and the second digit identifies the TEER, they are also referred to as the Major Group.

The hierarchical approach of the NOC ensures collection, dissemination and analysis of data at different levels of detail, in a standardized way. Each number or digit at each hierarchical level has a distinct meaning. Each hierarchical level of the classification is described below, from the most detailed to the most aggregated level.

Nomenclature and number of categories within each level of NOC 2021 Version 1.0

Nomenclature and number of categories within each level of NOC 2021 Version 1.0
Level	Coding	Number of categories
Broad Category	1-digit and first digit of all codes	10
TEER	Second-digit of all codes	6
Major Group	2-digit representing the broad category code and the TEER code	45
Sub-major Group	3-digit	89
Minor Group	4-digit	162
Unit Group	5-digit	516

Broad categories
The Broad Category (first digit) of the classification represents the occupational categorization which is defined by the type of work performed, the field of study, or the industry of employment. There are 10 Broad categories in NOC 2021 Version 1.0.

TEER categories
The TEER Category (second digit) of the classification represents the necessary training, education, experience and responsibilities of the occupation. There are 6 TEER categories in NOC 2021 Version 1.0.

Major groups
The Major Group (first and second digits) of the classification is represented by the Broad occupational categorization (first digit) and TEER categorization (second digit) together. A major group also encompasses several sub-major groups and thus represents the two-digit code used by the NOC. There are 45 major groups in NOC 2021 Version 1.0.

Sub-major groups
The Sub-major Group (3-digit) of the classification represents the aggregation of several minor groups and thus represents the three-digit code used by the NOC. There are 89 sub-major groups in NOC 2021 Version 1.0.

Minor groups
The Minor Group (4-digit) of the classification represents the domain in which an occupation is carried out (occupational domain). It is an aggregation of several unit groups and thus represents the four-digit code used by the NOC. There are 162 minor groups in NOC 2021 Version 1.0.

Unit Groups
The Unit Group (5-digit) of the classification is the most detailed level of the classification and represents one or several occupations combined together within the NOC. There are 516 units groups in NOC 2021 Version 1.0.

Example of coding in NOC 2021 Version 1.0: Judges, lawyers and Quebec notaries

Example of coding in NOC 2021 Version 1.0: Judges, lawyers and Quebec notaries
Level	NOC 2021 V1.0 Code	NOC 2021 V1.0 Title
Broad occupational group	4	Occupations in education, law and social, community and government services
Major group	41	Professional occupations in law, education, social, community and government services
Sub-minor group	411	Professional occupations in law
Minor group	4110	Judges, lawyers and Quebec notaries
Unit Group	41100	Judges
Unit Group	41101	Lawyers and Quebec notaries

The Coding system of the NOC 2021 Version 1.0

As identified in the "Classification Criteria" the NOC 2021 Version 1.0 is built through the application of two major attributes of jobs as classification criteria: ten broad occupational categories (BOC) and six TEER categories.

NOC 2021 Version 1.0 Broad Occupational Categories

Broad Occupational Categories are defined as the type of work performed based on, notably, the field of study required for entry into an occupation and the industry of employment. The ten BOCs are classified from 0 to 9.

NOC 2021 Version 1.0 Broad Occupational Categories
NOC 2021 V1.0 Broad Category - Occupation	when the first digit is…
BOC 0 - Legislative and senior management occupations This broad category comprises legislators and senior management occupations.	0
BOC 1 - Business, finance and administration occupations This broad category comprises specialized middle management occupations in administrative services, financial and business services and communication (except broadcasting), as well as professional occupations in financial and business; administrative and financial supervisors and specialized administrative occupations; administrative occupations and transportation logistics occupations; and office and administrative support and supply chain logistics occupations.	1
BOC 2 - Natural and applied sciences and related occupations This broad category comprises occupations in natural sciences (including basic and applied sciences and experimental development), engineering, architecture and information technology. These occupations cover specialized middle management occupations in engineering, architecture, science and information systems; professional occupations in natural sciences (basic and applied sciences and experimental development); and technical occupations related to natural sciences (including basic and applied sciences and experimental development).	2
BOC 3 - Health occupations This broad category comprises specialized middle management occupations in health care, as well as occupations concerned with providing health care services directly to patients (professional and technical occupations in health) and occupations that provide support to health services.	3
BOC 4 - Occupations in education, law and social, community and government services This broad category comprises managers in public administration, in education and social and community services and in public protection services, as well as occupations concerned with teaching, law, counselling, conducting social science research, developing government policy, and administering government and other programs, and related support occupations.	4
BOC 5 - Occupations in art, culture, recreation and sport This broad category comprises specialized middle management occupations in art, culture, recreation and sport, as well as professional, technical, support and other occupations concerned with art and culture (including the performing arts, film and video, broadcasting, journalism, writing, creative design, libraries and museums), recreation and sports.	5
BOC 6 - Sales and service occupations This broad category comprises middle management occupations in wholesale and retail trade, and customer services, as well as occupations concerned with wholesale and retail sales, and customer, personal and support service occupations related to a wide range of trade and service industries, such as accommodation and food services, travel, tourism and cleaning services.	6
BOC 7 - Trades, transport and equipment operators and related occupations This broad category comprises middle management occupations in trades, transportation and equipment, as well as occupations such as technical trades and transportation officers and controllers; general trades; mail and message distribution, other transport equipment operators and related maintenance workers; and helpers and labourers and other transport drivers, operators and labourers.	7
BOC 8 - Natural resources, agriculture and related production occupations This broad category comprises middle management occupations in natural resources, agriculture and related production, as well as occupations concerned with supervision and equipment operation in the natural resource-based sectors of mining, oil and gas production, forestry and logging, agriculture, horticulture and fishing. Harvesting, landscaping and natural resources labourers are also included. Most occupations in this category are industry specific and do not occur outside of the primary resources industries.	8
BOC 9 - Occupations in manufacturing and utilities This broad category comprises middle management occupations in manufacturing and utilities, as well as occupations concerned with supervisory, production and labouring in manufacturing, processing and utilities.	9

The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 TEER Categories

The "TEER" categorization defines the requirements of the occupation by considering the type of training, education and experience required for entry, as well as the complexities and responsibilities typical of an occupation. In general, the greater the range and complexity of occupational tasks, the greater the amount of formal education and training, previous experience, on-the-job training, and in some instance's responsibility, required to competently perform the set of tasks for that occupation.

NOC 2021 Version 1.0 TEER Categories
The NOC 2021 V1.0 Training, Education, Experience and Responsibility (TEER)	when the second digit is…
Management - TEER	0
Completion of a university degree (bachelor's, master's or doctorate); or Previous experience and expertise in subject matter knowledge from a related occupation found in TEER 2 (when applicable).	1
Completion of a post-secondary education program of two to three years at community college, institute of technology or CÉGEP; or Completion of an apprenticeship training program of two to five years; or Occupations with supervisory or significant safety (e.g. police officers and firefighters) responsibilities; or Several years of experience in a related occupation from TEER 3 (when applicable).	2
Completion of a post-secondary education program of less than two years at community college, institute of technology or CÉGEP; or Completion of an apprenticeship training program of less than two years; or More than six months of on-the-job training, training courses or specific work experience with some secondary school education; or Several years of experience in a related occupation from TEER 4 (when applicable).	3
Completion of secondary school; or Several weeks of on-the-job training with some secondary school education; or Experience in a related occupation from TEER 5 (when applicable).	4
Short work demonstration and no formal educational requirements.	5

The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 conventions

This section outlines the conventions adopted in order to assist users in consistently assigning NOC 2021 Version 1.0 codes and titles.

The "Other" title

When a unit group ends with a "9", it is used to classify occupations in an appropriate "other" occupation when a grouping does not account for all the workers in a group, even though such workers may perform distinct sets of work activities. These occupational groups are identified in their title by ''Other'' appearing at the beginning of the title. "Other" titles exist at the sub-group, minor group or unit group level, for example, Sub-major group 729 – Other technical trades; Minor group 2139 – Other engineers; and Unit group 32209 - Other practitioners of natural healing.

Language

The NOC is available separately in both official languages. It is important to note that the French version includes only titles commonly used in French and proper to the milieu and, therefore, these are not normally translations of the English titles. The classification structure is the same in both languages.

Unit group labels, example titles, inclusions and exclusions are presented in a gender-neutral format or identified by the masculine and feminine titles separated by a slash.

Modifying terms for example titles

Modifying terms have been added to several job titles, as extensions, to designate the industrial sector or the domain of expertise. If applicable, this information is preceded by a dash at the end of the title (cashier supervisor - retail) to distinguish between similar titles. These modifying terms may also specify where the titles appear in the classification structure (painter - visual arts; painter - motor vehicle repair). This information should be considered when coding job titles.

Proprietors

As a general rule, the class of worker status, that is, whether the respondent works for wages or is self-employed, is not considered for classification purposes.

An exception is made for proprietors in retail trade, food and accommodation services, and residential home building. These are classified as managers to the following unit groups:

60020 - Retail and wholesale trade managers
60030 - Restaurant and food service managers
60031 - Accommodation service managers
70011 - Home building and renovation managers

Supervisors

Supervisors are generally classified with the workers supervised and as a result would not have a separate unit group. But there are exceptions to this convention, for example, unit groups 31300 - Nursing coordinators and supervisors and 62010 – Retail sales supervisors.

Supervisors in the following occupational categories have been classified in supervisor unit groups separate from the workers supervised:

administrative services occupations
nursing occupations
sales and service occupations
trades and transport and equipment operators
occupations in natural resources and agriculture
occupations in manufacturing.

Even when separate supervisory unit groups exist, "lead hands" are not classified as such, as previous research has indicated that supervision is usually only a minor part of such jobs.

Inspectors, testers, and graders

Generally, inspectors with TEER 2 requirements have been classified in separate unit groups or with technicians and technologists, with matching requirements. Other non-technical inspectors, testers, graders and samplers have been included either in separate unit groups covering occupations in processing industries or in unit groups of assemblers and fabricators in manufacturing industries. This is reflective of patterns of employment found within industries and the increasing responsibility for quality control that is placed on manufacturing production workers.

Apprentices and trainees

Apprentices and trainees have been classified in the same unit groups as the occupations for which they are training. Similarly, interns, residents and articling students are classified with their respective professional groups.

This convention has been adopted to prevent a proliferation of unit groups of apprentices. It is not intended to imply equivalence or interchangeability of apprentices or trainees with fully qualified workers.

Format of unit group descriptions

Each NOC unit group description consists of several standardized sections which define and describe its content.

Lead statement

This section provides a general description of the content and boundaries of the unit group and indicates the main activities of occupations within the unit group. It also indicates the kinds of industries or establishments in which the occupations are found. The list of places of employment is not always exhaustive, but can assist in clarifying the occupations described and in differentiating them from occupations found in other groups.

Illustrative examples^{Footnote 3} / Example titles^{Footnote 4}

This section is a list of titles commonly used in the labour market. The titles are intended to illustrate the contents and range of the occupational group. This is not an exhaustive list of job titles.

Inclusions

This section provides a list of borderline job titles belonging to a particular NOC unit group. Inclusions are examples in classes where it might not be clear from reading both the class text and title that the example belongs in the class.

Exclusions

This section clarifies the boundaries of the unit group by identifying related unit groups and similar occupations that are classified elsewhere. Unit groups or individual occupations are cited in this section when they bear a functional similarity to the unit group or when similar titles occur.

Main duties

The main duties section describes the most significant duties of the occupations in the group. They are not intended to be comprehensive of all the tasks performed in the occupation. They represent key duties that are related to the occupation(s) associated with the unit group and can be listed using:

a series of statements that can be applied to all occupations in the group;
two or more sub-sets of occupations with statements that apply to each sub-set or component;
a series of brief statements that are linked to specific occupations, that, while similar enough to be in the same group, can be described separately.

Statements in italics, at the end of this section, identify a specialization that may exist within the occupation.

Employment requirements

This section describes the employment requirements for the unit group. Several types of requirements are identified in this section and are listed in the following order.

Type and level of education: for example, secondary school, college diploma, university degree and including specific subject matter if relevant, starting with the lowest possible requirement for entry into the occupation.
Specific training: for example, apprenticeship training, on-the-job training, training courses specific to an occupation.
Experience in another occupation: for example, supervisors usually require several years of experience in the occupation that they supervise.
Licences, certificates or registration: for example, regulatory requirements to practice in a regulated profession, special licenses to operate certain kinds of vehicles.
Other requirements: for example, athletic ability or artistic talent.

Some occupations have very definite employment requirements while for others, there is no consensus or a range of acceptable requirements exist. The following terminology is used to indicate the level of the requirement:

"... is required" - to indicate a definite requirement;
"... is usually required" - to indicate something that is usually required by the majority of employers, but not always required by all employers; and
"... may be required" - to indicate something that may be required by some employers, but on a less frequent basis.

Employment requirements items to note:

Some occupations are designated as regulated professions and trades. Regulations are subject to change and may vary across jurisdictions. The most reliable information on regulatory requirements for occupations is found on the websites of provincial regulatory organizations and licensing authorities.
For reasons of brevity, the term college includes: community colleges, CÉGEPS, technical institutes, trade schools and agricultural colleges. Where relevant, in some provinces, it may also include private training organizations, music conservatories and other non-degree granting institutions.
The Employment requirements section does not attempt to describe personal suitability requirements that are assessed by employers as part of the hiring process.

Additional information

This section appears in some unit group descriptions. It provides information on the following:

progression to other occupations (such as supervisory or management positions) based on transferability of skills from acquired occupational experience;
mobility patterns, such as inter- and intra-occupational transferability of skills (for example, identifying occupations that are part of internal lines of progression or specializations within a subject matter area);
trends and forthcoming changes in the unit group's employment requirements; and other information to clarify and define the unit group.

Coding guidelines to NOC 2021 Version 1.0

The NOC is designed to classify occupational information in the Canadian labour market in a standardized framework and a manageable, understandable and coherent system. Statistics Canada's role is to provide occupational information for statistical surveys and data analysis.

When conducting a search to determine what code is best associated with a job title or occupation it is important to note:

Even though the NOC contains more than 30,000 job titles in each of Canada's official languages the list is not meant to be exhaustive. The list of examples does provide extensive coverage of commonly used and understood titles in the economy and of more specific titles found in many occupational areas.
Occupations are identified and grouped primarily by:
- the type of work performed based on, notably, the field of study required for entry into an occupation and the industry of employment, and;
- considering the type of training, education and experience required for entry, as well as the complexities and responsibilities.

Both of which are determined by the main duties, tasks and responsibilities of the occupation and are key when trying to determine the best code for a job title. Consideration of these factors has proven to be effective in helping to narrow the search for a desired NOC code.

Selecting a NOC code

To find a NOC code associated with a job title start by using the search function and enter an occupational title or keywords related to the occupation. Searching the NOC will generate a list of possible occupations. If the initial search does not yield a matching occupational profile, sound practice is to broaden or narrow the search by using different related keywords.
In order to research how closely a NOC unit group code matches a given occupation, the details of the NOC profile in question are to be reviewed, such as the main duties and employment requirements to assess which one most accurately represents the occupation in question. Other information within the NOC profile should also be assessed such as example titles, additional information, and exclusions.
If the NOC unit group associated with the job title or occupation in question using the title job search is not found, the NOC structure can be used to narrow down the research. Apply knowledge of which sector of activity the occupation in question is associated to, e.g. health, natural sciences, trades, or transportation. That will limit the search to NOC unit groups found under one "broad occupational category", which is represented by the first digit of the NOC code. Reduction of the scope based on the TEER requirements of the job or occupation can be beneficial. These requirements correspond to the second digit of the NOC code. Please note these may differ from personal educational levels.
Once the broad occupational category and the TEER associated with the job have been identified, a short list of relevant NOC sub-major groups (represented by the first three digits of the NOC code) and NOC minor groups (represented by the first four digits of the NOC code) will be available.
A review of the list of all the NOC unit groups found under the relevant NOC minor groups is required, prior to accessing the occupational description of each unit groups to find where the occupation has been classified.
To code an occupation, it is possible to use either the search tool or the classification structure.

Related Classifications

The classification of occupations does not stand alone but must be understood as being related to other classifications, such as the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and that of Class of Worker. Each of these classifications supplements the NOC 2021 Version 1.0 in presenting a rounded picture of the nature of a person's job.

North American Industry Classification System (NAICS)

The industrial qualifier which may accompany the job title:

Indicates the type of economic activity with which the job is usually associated. (It is important to note that the assignment of an industrial qualifier does not necessarily limit a job to that industry. These qualifiers are merely indicative of the possible areas of activity in which the job may be found.)
Permits the assignment of similar titles to different occupation groups where the duties vary between industries.
Aids in defining the specific occupations and helps the coder grasp the underlying principles of this classification.

The industry in which the individual is employed is determined by the kind of economic activity of the establishment. The establishment is usually a factory, mine, farm, store, other place of business or an institution for which a number of basic production variables can be compiled.

It is important to note the conceptual differences between an industry classification and an occupation classification. An establishment can employ individuals performing completely different occupations, and these are classified to appropriate occupational groups, but the industrial classification of each individual employed in the establishment should be the same and is determined by the nature of the production process of the establishment. In other words, the nature of the factory, business or service in which the person is employed does not determine the classification of the occupation, except to the extent that it enables the nature of the duties to be more clearly defined, but it does determine the classification of the establishment by industry.

Class of worker

Class of worker refers to an individual's employment relationship to the business in which they work, as employee or self-employed, including unpaid family workers, and thus provides another means of describing the work. The NOC 2021 Version 1.0 does not indicate the class of worker classification for each occupation since many occupations contain both jobs held by employees and jobs of self-employed individuals. The scope of what is an occupation has been outlined in the section "The underlying concepts".

Relationship between NOC and ISCO-08

The NOC is comparable to the International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO) published by the International Labour Organization (ILO). While the NOC was originally developed in Canada in the 1980s, ISCO was also being reviewed and updated to produce ISCO-88. Communication between the NOC and ISCO research teams led to similarities, such as a similar conceptual framework that includes the Skill Type and Skill Level dimensions. The similarities between the NOC and ISCO increased in later structural revision (ISCO-08 and NOC 2011) cycles. However, certain conceptual differences between the NOC 2021 Version 1.0 and ISCO-08 limit comparability. For instance, differences in the classification criteria and classification structure exist between NOC 2021 Version 1.0 and ISCO-08. Additionally, subsistence occupations included in ISCO are not part of the NOC. For countries and regions in which subsistence activities are virtually non-existent, the ILO affirms that such activities may be excluded without loss of international comparability.

The concordance between NOC 2011 and ISCO 2008 can be used for purposes of showing the relationship between NOC 2016 and ISCO 2008 since the structure is the same in both NOC 2011 and NOC 2016. A correspondence table is available between NOC 2016 V1.3 and NOC 2021 V1.0; a correspondence table between NOC 2021 V1.0 and ISCO-08 will be developed and published.

Summary of changes from NOC 2016 Version 1.3 to NOC 2021 Version 1.0

Changes occurred at all levels of the NOC structure. Some items were revised while others were added, split, transferred or merged. A complete list of all changes detailed at the unit group level (the most detailed level of the NOC structure) is released as a separate correspondence file and is available at NOC 2016 V1.3 - NOC 2021 V1.0.

Higher level structural changes

The following are some examples of higher level structural changes:

In the 2016 version of the NOC, "BOC 0 – Management" included all unit groups dedicated to managerial occupations. Under the 2021 NOC, management is identified in the employment requirements, via the TEER system, rather than as a "field of study and/or industry". The BOC 0 now only contains legislators and senior management occupations. Middle management occupations previously in BOC 0 have been redistributed into the remaining 9 BOCs based on the industry of employment. For example: 0211 - Engineering managers (NOC 2016 V1.3) has been moved to BOC 2 – Natural and applied sciences and related occupations, to unit group 20010 – Engineering managers (NOC 2021 V1.0).

Another example of a higher level structural change is NOC 2016 Version 1.3 minor group 227 - Transportation officers and controllers (and associated unit groups) was moved from BOC 2 - Natural and applied sciences and related occupations to BOC 7 - Trades, transport and equipment operators and related occupations as NOC 2021 Version 1.0 minor group 7260 - Transportation officers and controllers (and associated unit groups). This move better aligns the minor occupation group with the industry of employment.

As it is done for all standard statistical classifications, we provide a more detailed analysis of the changes at the lowest of the classification, which is the unit group level for the NOC.

Changes at the unit group level

The unit group level (5-digit) is the most detailed level of the NOC and it is used for the analysis of the changes in a more detailed manner. Some items were revised while others were added, split, transferred or merged. The Generic Statistical Information Model (GSIM) is used to identify the types of changes made to the classification: real changes and virtual changes. Real changes are those affecting the scope of the existing classification items or categories, whether or not accompanied by changes in the title, definition and/or the coding. Virtual changes are those made in coding, titles and/or definitions, while the meaning or scope of the classification item remains the same. The "real changes" are the most important ones for analysis.

Here are some examples of real changes at the unit group level:

Creation and deletion of new classification items

Creations occur when a new item emerges and is not part of any one or more existing item(s). A deletion, the mirror opposite of creation, occurs when an item expires and no part of it proceeds as part of one or more existing item(s). No new classification items (unit groups) were created to the NOC 2021 Version 1.0, and no NOC 2016 V1.3 classification items were deleted according to the deletion and creation definitions found in GSIM.

Combination of classification items

Combinations consist of mergers and take-overs among classification items. There were 9 mergers and 3 take-overs of NOC 2016 Version 1.3 unit groups. Essentially, unit groups were combined into an emerging unit group (merger) or an existing unit group (take-over) with the intent to re-arrange the classification of occupational groupings to reflect the current and emerging labour market.

Decomposition of classification items

21 classification items are a result of either a breakdown or a split-off: 10 breakdown and 11 split-offs. Unit groups either expired and were distributed over emerging items (breakdown) or partially continued with part assigned (split-off) to emerging unit group with the intent to better align occupational grouping based on the TEER classification criteria and reflect the current and emerging labour market. Below are examples of decomposition changes related to the addition of more detailed classification items.

1525	Dispatchers	Transfer	14404	Dispatchers	1525 continues as 14404 and part transferred to 13201.

Virtual Changes

Essentially, all items of the classification were affected by virtual changes. For example, all unit groups with 1 to 1 links were still affected by code changes as a result of the TEER system. At the most detailed level of the classification (unit groups) more than 470 unit groups were modified where changes were made to titles and definitions. For example, some titles were modified to better describe the occupational groupings based on content revisions. These types of changes are important for clarification and making necessary updates or corrections.

Finally, all changes made (real or virtual) can potentially have an impact on the content of the classification file, which at the most detailed level contains leading statements, illustrative and example job titles, exclusions, inclusions, main duties, employment requirements and additional information. More than 3500 content items have been either added, deleted or edited and more than 1000 job titles have been added, deleted or edited in this NOC 2021 Version 1.0. These two components of the classification support coding of occupations and fosters fluidity when reading or using the classification.

Supplement to Statistics Canada's Generic Privacy Impact Assessment related to the Survey on Health Care Workers' Experiences During the Pandemic (SHCWEP)

Date: August, 2021

Program manager: Director, Centre for Population Health Division
Director General, Health, Justice, Diversity and Populations

Reference to Personal Information Bank (PIB)

Personal information collected through the Survey on Health Care Workers' Experiences During the Pandemic is described in Statistics Canada's "Health Surveys" Personal Information Bank. The Personal Information Bank refers to personal information that is related to participants of health surveys conducted by Statistics Canada. The personal information may include the following: name, contact, biographical, biometric, citizenship status, education, employment, financial, language, health and medical information (from blood, urine and hair samples), pregnancy, breastfeeding, sleep habits, sexual behaviour, nutrition, alcohol and e-cigarette/cigarette use, medication/drug use, physical attributes, physical activity, neighbourhood environment, place of birth, and provincial health card number.

The "Health Surveys" Personal Information Bank (Bank number: StatCan PPU 806) is published on the Statistics Canada website under the latest Information about programs and Information Holdings chapter.

Description of statistical activity

Statistics Canada is conducting the Survey on Health Care Workers' Experiences During the Pandemic, under the authority of the Statistics Act ^{Footnote 1} , on behalf of the Public Health Agency of Canada and Health Canada.

The purpose of this survey is to understand the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on health care workers in Canada. This voluntary survey will cover topics such as job type and setting, personal protective equipment (PPE) and infection prevention and control (IPC) practices and protocols, COVID-19 vaccination and diagnosis, and the impacts of the pandemic on personal health and work life. It also includes general demographic questions.

A master microdata file will be produced and made available in Statistics Canada's Research Data Centres (RDC)^{Footnote 2} . A subset of the master file which contains only information of respondents who have consented to share their information, called the share file, will be made available to the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) Health Canada (HC), the Institut de la Statistique du Québec (ISQ) and provincial and territorial ministries of health. A Public Use Microdata File (PUMF)^{Footnote 3} will also be produced for use by the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) and will be available to members of the public. Health Canada, PHAC and CIHI plan to use the survey results to help inform health care workforce planning, the delivery of health care services and to better understand what health care workers need in terms of equipment, training and support.

The survey targets health care workers and those working in a health care setting in Canada since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic who are living in the 10 provinces. Because of the small number of health care workers in the territories, the limitation of collection to the capital cities and the low response rates currently being experienced in the territories it was deemed that collection in the territories would not produce enough respondents to be able to release reliable estimates at the individual territorial level.

Questions on health include self-perceived health, mental health, and daily stress both currently and compared to before the COVID-19 pandemic, resilience, feelings of anxiety, depression, or suicide, chronic conditions, and changes in lifestyle and behaviours, such as consumption of alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, pain relievers for non-therapeutic purposes, or illegal drugs.

Questions on COVID-19 include the impact of COVID-19 on the respondent's job and personal life, COVID-19 diagnosis, possible hospitalization, where it was contracted, and reason(s) for getting tested. Also included are questions on COVID-19 vaccination, reasons for not having been vaccinated (if applicable), and precautions taken at home related to COVID-19.

In addition, respondents will be asked to confirm their name, and provide other demographic information such as date of birth, age, gender, postal code, province/territory of residence, province/territory of work, Indigenous identity, population group, immigration and citizenship and income. The purpose of including these questions is to determine if there are differences in the impacts of the pandemic on health care workers from various groups. For example, those living in different provinces, younger or older health care workers, or differences among genders.

A sample of 32,500 individuals were selected from Census 2016 long form respondents. These were individuals who had identified as a health care worker at the time of Census 2016 or who were registered in a health care education program between 2015 and 2018, according to the Postsecondary Student Information System (PSIS). This is a targeted respondent survey. Responses will be aggregated to ensure that no individuals can be directly or indirectly identified.

Reason for supplement:

While the Generic Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) addresses most of the privacy and security risks related to statistical activities conducted by Statistics Canada, this supplement describes additional measures being implemented due to the sensitivity of the information being collected. As is the case with all PIAs, Statistics Canada's privacy framework ensures that elements of privacy protection and privacy controls are documented and applied. The Survey on Health Care Workers' Experiences During the Pandemic will collect information on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on health care workers' personal and professional lives, including their mental well-being (including feelings of anxiety, depression, or suicide) as well as sensitive personal information such as name, date of birth, and gender identity. This supplement describes how Statistics Canada designed and developed this survey while taking into account the possible impact on vulnerable populations.

Necessity and proportionality

The collection and use of personal information for the Survey on Health Care Workers' Experiences During the Pandemic can be justified against Statistics Canada's Necessity and Proportionality Framework:

Necessity:
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on health care workers is not fully understood. There are few existing sources of information on this topic, in particular on the impact on health care workers' personal life, so a survey is needed to fill this data gap. The results of this survey may be used by the Public Health Agency of Canada, Health Canada, the Canadian Institute for Health Information and other government organizations to help to inform health care workforce planning, the delivery of health care services and to better understand what health care workers need in terms of equipment, training and support.

Only health care workers living in the provinces are eligible to participate. This is a targeted respondent survey and respondents will confirm that they are health care workers at the start of the survey. The demographic data and occupational group information collected will be used for analysis of subgroups of the population. The health care workers have been stratified into four groups from a list of 24 occupations: physicians, nurses, personal support workers (PSWs) and other health care workers. A goal of the survey is to be able to understand how the impacts of the pandemic are affecting different types of health care workers.

The survey data file, without direct identifiers other than postal code and date of birth, will be made available to researchers in the Research Data Centres (RDC) upon approval of requests to access the data for statistical research. Statistics Canada's directives and policies on data publication will be followed to ensure the confidentiality of any data released from the RDC. Only aggregate results, which are fully anonymized and non-confidential, without direct identifiers, which precludes the possibility of re-identifying individuals, can be released from the RDC. Statistics Canada will retain this data as long as required for statistical purposes, in order to conduct analysis of long‐term impacts.

Although there are currently no plans for record linkage, direct personal identifiers such as name will be retained on a separate file in a secure location for potential linkage opportunities in the future.

Statistics Canada's microdata linkage and related statistical activities were assessed in Statistics Canada's Generic Privacy Impact Assessment.^{Footnote 4} All data linkage activities are subject to established governance^{Footnote 5} , and are assessed against the privacy principles of necessity and proportionality.^{Footnote 6} All approved linkages are published on Statistics Canada's website.^{Footnote 7}
Effectiveness - Working assumptions:
A questionnaire was developed by following Statistics Canada's processes and methodology to produce results that are representative of the population. The survey will be administered using a self-reported electronic questionnaire with interviewer telephone follow-up for non-response. A random sample of health care workers or individuals expected to be working as health care workers from Statistics Canada's 2016 Census 2016 will receive an invitation letter and secure access code to complete the survey on Statistics Canada's secure website. After 3 and a half weeks, interviewers will follow up with individuals that have not yet responded, to re-issue the invitation and provide respondents with the opportunity to complete the survey over the telephone with a trained Statistics Canada interviewer. The collection period will be approximately ten weeks. All Statistics Canada directives and policies for the development, collection, and dissemination of the survey will be followed, and survey responses will not be attached to respondents' addresses or phone numbers. The data will be representative of the health care worker population and may be disaggregated by province, ethnicity, gender, age groupings, and other variables; in order to ensure anonymity.
Proportionality:
Data on mental health and its impacts, as well as data on consumption of illegal drugs are highly sensitive. Moreover, mental-health issues may be exacerbated due to COVID‐19 isolation protocols. For these reasons, experts at Statistics Canada have been consulted on the scope and methodology of the survey. Wherever possible, questions about mental health and well‐being from existing surveys have been used. Some of these questions were taken from the Survey of COVID-19 and Mental Health (SCMH) and have previously undergone qualitative testing; the SHCWEP questionnaire also underwent qualitative testing.

All the data to be collected are required to fulfill the purpose of the survey as described above. All questions and response categories were carefully considered to ensure they accurately capture the data in question to help inform activities such as health care workforce planning, the delivery of health care services and to better understand what health care workers need in terms of equipment, training, and support.

Statistics Canada directives and policies with respect to data collection and publication will be followed to ensure the confidentiality of the data. Individual responses will be grouped with those of others when reporting results. Individual responses and results for small groups (as established by minimum prevalence levels for each variable among these small groups) will not be published or shared with government departments or agencies. This approach will also reduce any potential impact on vulnerable populations or subsets of populations, as the grouping of results will protect the confidentiality of individuals within a particular subset of the population. As permitted by the Statistics Act^{Footnote 8} and with consent of individual respondents, survey responses may be shared with the Public Health Agency of Canada, Health Canada, provincial and territorial ministries of health, and for Quebec residents, the Institut de la statistique du Québec, strictly for statistical and research purposes, to aid in future policy decisions related to health care workers, in accordance with Statistics Canada's security and confidentiality requirements.

The findings will support decision-making at all levels of government and improve knowledge and understanding of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on health care workers, and will help inform government decision‐making in order to support health care workers in their personal and professional lives. The privacy measures taken are proportional to the potential risks to an individual's privacy.

Proportionality has also been considered based on ethics:

Prior to collection, individuals selected to participate in the survey will be clearly informed that the survey is voluntary. They will also be informed of the survey's purpose and topics, so that they can make an informed decision about whether they want to participate. This notification to all potential participants will be done in writing on the questionnaire, or verbally by the interviewer before any questions are asked. They will also be asked if their data can be shared with the Public Health Agency of Canada, Health Canada, provincial and territorial ministries of health, and for Quebec residents, the Institut de la statistique du Québec.

Since some of the survey questions are sensitive and could lead to distress, mental-health resources will be included in the help text for those questions, which can be accessed in the electronic questionnaire and during interviews.

The help text reads as follows and includes 10 resources of which 3 are listed here as examples:

In the current context of COVID-19, many people are trying to adjust to the new norms, such as returning to work or day-to-day life. During this time, many people may not feel that they are in control of things, and it is normal to feel concerned, sad, stressed, confused, scared or worried.

Alternatives:
Research was conducted on existing administrative data and other surveys related to health care workers. It was determined that these types of data sources would not provide the details needed to fully understand the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on health care workers. As a result, it was determined that a survey to collect this information was required. A previous crowdsource collection, where information is collected from volunteers, took place in November and December of 2020 which collected information primarily related to the participant's work environment and access to infection prevention and control (IPC) and personal protective equipment (PPE) at work without much information about individuals' personal lives. Additionally, because it was a crowdsource collection, it is not possible to use it to produce estimates that are representative of the Canadian population. Based on discussions between health and methodology experts within Statistics Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada, it was determined that a survey with at least 30,000 units was necessary to produce reliable and accurate results by province and the four health occupation groups of interest (physicians, nurses, PSWs, and other health care workers). Releasing data at these aggregated levels would reduce the potential to identify impacts on vulnerable populations, subsets of populations, and groups.

Mitigation factors:

Some questions contained in the Survey on Health Care Worker's Experiences During the Pandemic are considered sensitive as they relate to an individual's mental health and well-being. The overall risk of harm to the survey respondents has been deemed manageable with existing Statistics Canada safeguards that are described in Statistics Canada's Generic Privacy Impact Assessment, as well as with the following measures:

Mental-Health Resources:

As with mental health surveys conducted by Statistics Canada, mental-health resources and contact information will be provided to respondents as a help button within the electronic questionnaire. In addition, in the case of telephone follow-up for non-response, interviewers will be trained and equipped to offer mental health resources and contact information to survey respondents.

Transparency:

Prior to collection, individuals selected to participate in the survey will be clearly informed that the survey is voluntary. They will also be informed of the survey's purpose and topics, so that they can make an informed decision about whether they want to participate. This notification to all potential participants will be done in writing on the questionnaire, or verbally by the interviewer before any questions are asked. The topics listed as part of the survey will include: job type and setting, personal protective equipment (PPE) and infection prevention and control (IPC) practices and protocols, COVID-19 vaccination and diagnosis, and the impacts of the pandemic on personal health and work life. It also includes general demographic questions. This information will be provided through invitation and reminder letters, and will be repeated at the beginning of the questionnaire. Information about the survey, as well as the survey questionnaire, will also be available on Statistics Canada's website.

Confidentiality:

Individual responses will be grouped with those of others when reporting results. Individual responses and results for very small groups will never be published or shared with government departments or agencies. Following careful analysis of the data, consideration will be given prior to the release of aggregate data to ensure that marginalized and vulnerable communities are not disproportionally impacted. As permitted by the Statistics Act, and only with the consent of the respondent, survey responses may be shared with PHAC, Health Canada and provincial and territorial ministries of health, strictly for statistical and research purposes, and in accordance Statistics Canada's security and confidentiality requirements. The postal code will not be used to identify respondents given that only aggregated data will be released.

Conclusion:

This assessment concludes that with the existing Statistics Canada safeguards and additional mitigation factors listed above, any remaining risks are such that Statistics Canada is prepared to accept and manage the risk.

Introductions and Opening Remarks

Anil Arora, Chief Statistician of Canada

Mr. Arora opened the meeting by welcoming members to the fourth biannual meeting of the Advisory Council on Ethics and Modernization of Microdata Access (ACEMMA), and thanking them for their continuous advice and guidance as the agency continues to modernize. He noted that their skills and expertise are of utmost importance to Statistics Canada (StatCan), and are essential as the agency continues to determine how best to serve Canadians with the highest ethical standards and in a responsible manner when dealing with sensitive data sources, while delivering de-identified microdata access to researchers and policy makers that benefits all Canadians.

A recap of the previous meeting was provided. Mr. Arora highlighted ongoing efforts to integrate ethical frameworks and effective governance within all the inputs and outputs of the agency in a systematic and focused manner with transparency to Canadians. He also noted the continued advancements of creating new and innovative methods for collaboration, enhancing the agency's statistical programs, producing more disaggregated data, and making data more open to the research community while adhering to confidentiality requirements and governing frameworks. Additionally, various StatCan ongoing key initiatives were outlined, including developments of the Virtual Data Lab, Virtual Research Data Centre, Client Relationship Management System, accreditation frameworks, and the Confidentiality Classification Tool (CCT) scoring of additional datasets.

Updates on the Virtual Data Lab project

Leila Boussaïd, Director General, Data Access and Dissemination Branch, Statistics Canada
Marc St-Denis, Assistant-director, Data Access and Dissemination Branch, Statistics Canada

Ms. Boussaïd shared updates on the Virtual Data Lab (vDL) project. As the vDL will go into production in October 2021, the goal remains to provide increased access to accredited researchers through the use of authorized workspaces and remote capabilities. She noted that the Protected B Cloud environment should be available for all levels of government, non-profit organizations, and academia, and will provide 24/7 remote access up to CCT 7 score data. Pilots are presently being conducted to gather lessons learned and to work towards an overall improved end-state of the environment. Mr. St-Denis addressed the project's plan and timelines regarding the transition of all current existing partners to the vDL Cloud environment.

Council members expressed support and enthusiasm for the project, and agreed that advancements in technology allow to achieve greater access to data in a secure and virtual way. Members inquired about the security approach for this project, wanting to ensure that both external and internal threats were addressed. A discussion took place on options to mitigate risks such as accreditation and real time monitoring.

Updates on ethical considerations in the acquisition of administrative data, Trust Agenda, and social license

Eric Rancourt, Director General, Modern Statistical Methods and Data Science Branch
Greg Peterson, Assistant Chief Statistician, Economics Statistics Field
Janice Keenan, Director General, Communications Branch
Jacques Fauteux, Assistant Chief Statistician, Strategic Engagement Field, Statistics Canada (Moderator)

Mr. Rancourt shared progress with the Office of Privacy Commissioner (OPC) and accomplishments that have been achieved for data ethics and privacy at StatCan, such as the creation of an internal Data Ethics Committee and Secretariat, the increased execution of data ethics reviews, development of a Framework for Responsible Machine Learning, work to build a data sensitivity scale that will better inform managers about their programs, enhancement to the Necessity and Proportionality Framework, and availability of training in Data Ethics. Mr. Rancourt emphasized the importance of identifying potential social biases, stigmatization and data sensitivity, and asked council members the following questions:

Do we have a sufficiently elaborated ethical framework to support statistical activities?
Are there issues not covered or not sufficiently covered?
How can we move forward with statistical programs and maintain society's support?

Mr. Peterson led the discussion on the acquisition of data. He indicated that the pandemic has brought forth new data requirements and he highlighted the following three: (1) housing prices and implications on citizens; (2) equitable recovery and growth, and; (3) inflation and the acquisition of better information on consumer credit. Mr. Peterson highlighted the engagement work that is being done to continue to build relationships with various stakeholders to determine how best to serve their needs and collaborate with them on data acquisition.

Ms. Keenan led the discussion on the Trust Agenda and social license. A number of initiatives are underway, including the creation of a Communications and Engagement Strategy, enhancement of the agency's Trust Centre to make it more interactive, and the development of enhanced social acceptability metrics. Ms. Keenan emphasized the importance of continued engagement with the Canadian public to enable them to better understand the impact and relevance of StatCan data in their daily lives and their communities.

Council members agreed that there is a need to communicate and engage with Canadians to inform them, and asked what the agency can do to promote the work of StatCan and connect with people who do not visit the website. An extensive discussion on social license took place. Members suggested that partnerships could help improve understanding of the work of StatCan and can help mitigate concerns of some stakeholders. Members would like to see StatCan showcase examples of when society has received helpful information as a result of the agency's statistics, and to continue building on the notion of trust. Mr. Arora thanked the members for their input. He requested if the committee would take on the role of advising on the agency's state of readiness, as there is a desire for the committee to provide guidance regarding the agency moving forward and reasonable next steps in its initiatives. Members unanimously agreed to take on the role.

Managing the landscape in providing disaggregated data to researchers: how can StatCan increase granularity

Nathalie Brault, Director, Centre for Special Business Projects, Statistics Canada
Li Xue, Director, Social Analysis and Modelling Division, Statistics Canada
Jeff Latimer, Director General, Health, Justice, Diversity and Populations Branch, Statistics Canada
Lynn Barr-Telford, Assistant Chief Statistician, Social, Health and Labour Statistics, Statistics Canada (Moderator)

Mr. Latimer began the discussion with a presentation on the intended approach for the agency's Disaggregated Data Action Plan that was recently announced in the 2021 Budget. The plan will focus on contributing to a more equitable Canada by collecting, analyzing, and disseminating disaggregated data to improve insights and decision-making, and support more representative data collection and enhance statistics on diverse populations. Mr. Latimer noted that to achieve the plan's objective, StatCan is engaging with government partners and communities as part of its efforts to maintain social licence, working collaboratively with key stakeholders to collect and acquire new data, and improving access to the data and insights.

Ms. Brault continued the presentation in discussing disaggregated data in a business context. COVID-19 was a driver for increased demand and use of disaggregated data. She touched on the Canadian Survey on Business Conditions, launched in summer 2020. The survey collects information on businesses to identify potential emerging issues, to maintain a regular pulse on business intentions and sentiment and, in the short term, assess economic recovery. Ms. Brault noted that the agency is currently working with organizations such as Chamber of Commerce, the Canadian Business Resilience Network, as well as Black North to ensure that our products and services continue to be relevant to as many Canadians as possible.

Ms. Xue concluded the presentation noting that the goal is to enhance disaggregated data and facilitate research on complex issues and intersectionality. This will be achieved through the innovative approaches to disaggregated data and information (i.e. modeling, geomatics), and engaging with partners on collaborative pilot projects.

Council members were invited to provide input on the following questions for consideration:

Effective engagement with the communities served by the disaggregated data plan is key. Respondents, businesses owners and individuals alike, are reluctant to self-identify. How can we improve StatCan's engagement while respecting privacy and ethical considerations?
Canada is a mosaic with known regional diversity. What approaches does the committee recommend for reflecting diversity in an inclusive manner?
Any general advice or specific issues with regards to the planned direction on the Disaggregated Data Action Plan.

Mr. Arora noted the important role that the agency can continue to play as a data steward and the importance to lead by example. Standards will also play a key role in enabling a secure infrastructure with tools that build trust and capacity.

Council members noted the importance to make the distinction between the use of disaggregated data for policy making and for informing Canadians. With disaggregated data, more information will become available regarding which populations are underprivileged and the disproportionate impact on some groups in society. Members cautioned that the information can be accompanied with complicated ethical questions and issues, however, that the benefits are bigger than the drawbacks and that communicating these benefits and intentions with the public and how we engage will be key. There was general support for the strategic direction being pursued on the Disaggregated Data Action Plan (DDAP).

Responsible Machine Learning

Sevgui Erman, Director, Data Science Division, Statistics Canada
Yanick Beaucage, Chief, Data Science Division, Statistics Canada
Keven Bosa, Chief, Data Science Division, Statistics Canada
Susie Fortier, Director, International Cooperation and Methodology Innovation Centre, Statistics Canada
Martin Beaulieu, Chief, International Cooperation and Methodology Innovation Centre (Data Ethics Secretariat), Statistics Canada
André Loranger, Assistant Chief Statistician, Strategic Data Management, Methods and Analysis, Statistics Canada (Moderator)

Mr. Loranger noted that the Data Science Division and the Data Science Network had been created to help conduct ethical reviews and further advance data science techniques at StatCan. Mr. Bosa continued the discussion with a presentation on behalf of the group. He highlighted that as the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning methods continues to expand, there is a need for a framework and review process of machine learning at StatCan. Having a framework and review process preserves confidentiality, ensures transparency, maintains Canadian trust in StatCan as their data stewards, and helps produce statistics of quality. Mr. Bosa noted that the agency created a Framework for Responsible Machine Learning Processes that provides guidelines for the evaluation of applications for all statistical programs and projects using machine learning algorithms. The framework focuses on the following four themes: respect for people, respect for data, sound application, and sound methods. Mr. Bosa concluded the presentation and invited council members to provide input on the following questions for consideration:

Are there any missing elements or gaps?
Should we move the ethical peer review earlier in the project lifecycle?
Do you recommend other areas of research in view of enhancing the Framework?
Should we do more socialization of the Framework across Government of Canada? If so, how?

Council members agreed with the importance of all four components of the Framework, and noted that it is a tool that can be useful and informative and help build credibility into the agency's overall process. Members cautioned that the application of new AI technologies have ethical implications, such as potential issues of algorithmic bias. To address potential ethical implications, it is crucial for the agency to carefully review the data elements being used. Regarding social buy-in, members noted that remaining transparent will be key.

Closing Remarks
